This is a former country house, now a private nursing home, dating to 1893 and built for Sir William Wedderburn. The exterior is constructed of Sussex bond brickwork with ashlar dressings, and features timber framing painted grey with white rendered infill on the left side. The roof is tiled, with a fishscale design in parts, and has crested ridges.

The building has a large, irregular T-shaped plan, with the main entrance located in the cross-wing. The front facade has six windows and two storeys. The left side has a plain plinth and stone quoins to a chamfered corner, and a large five-light mullion window with two transoms, containing stained glass in the upper levels. To the right, a projecting section has a chamfered corner and a three-light mullion and transom window with Tudor arches in the upper part, and a flat hoodmould flanked by consoles on corbels supporting an oriel. A single-storey, gabled porch is set back on the right, with a stone base, glazed sidelights, and a central opening leading up two stone steps. The archway over the entrance has carved spandrels and fishscale boarding to the gable, with fretwork bargeboards and a timber finial. The front door has six panels arranged in two rows of three. To the right of the door are two lancets with Tudor arches, and a decorated square stone panel displaying a coat of arms.

The first floor has a moulded string course with leaf decoration on the left end. Above this, timber framing is visible, and the gable over the large bay displays trefoil heads to the bottom panels, moulded plaster including the date '1893', and a canted oriel with a two-light casement, leaded lights, and a Tudor arch. Decorative bargeboards top the gable. A timber-framed section is set back on the right, with added angle struts, and a three-light casement with leaded lights. Tile hanging is present on either side of the window. A brick gable on the right features a square oriel window with a two-light casement and leaded lights, and a hipped roof. A lancet window is positioned above this, leading to the roof space, and decorative bargeboards finish the gable. A set-back area above the porch has a two-light casement and a decorative blue-brick cross. A parapet gable with a chimney divided into two octagonal flues with decorative stone tops is also present.

The main roof is half-hipped at each end, with a gablet and chimney on the left side, similar to the right side of the facade. The right return includes a second gable with chamfered corners, brought out to form a square above, and an original conservatory. The interior is reported to contain a fine, unaltered music room.
