Description

The building has a 17th-century rendered stone ridge stack and similar external end stacks. The layout consists of a four-unit plan and the house is two storeys high with a four-window range. There is a 20th-century door and porch located to the right of the centre. The windows are 19th-century three-light casements with flat rendered arches above them. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to be of interest.
