Early C19 extended c1860 by G Devey. South end is early C19 stucco with fish- scale slate roof. Canted 3-sided south end with Gothic tracery to door and win- dows each side. One similar window on west side. Added to south end c1860 is a broad open timber balcony with ornate half-timbered gable. Attached at north end is roughcast range with fishscale slate roof. A large gable with half- timber and tiles in apex and a mullion and transom window forms crosswing with, to north, a range with half-dormer over a Gothic open loggia. Loggia walls and floors tiled with HS monogramme painted and encaustic tiles. To north again a painted brick and half-timber range of c1860 with plain tile roof. 3 large diagonal stacks on south side. Main front has ground floor bay window with oversailing half-timbered gable above. Oriel window under stepped forward gable apex. The early C19 work is probably the 'Tea Room' built over a mineral spring in 1813 by P F Robinson for the Countess of Orkney.
