Bays 1, 2, 6 and 7 have 16-pane sashes. The lower glazing bars have been removed from all windows. Hoodmoulds and plain architraves with projecting stone sills throughout. The bays are articulated by pilasters rising from the moulded plinth; the outer 2 bays have pilasters with recessed panels and dentilled capitals, the central 4 pilasters are more ornate, the upper half of each having a painted terracotta female figure with fruit and flowers in relief. The capitals and frieze are ornamented with fluted, dentilled and triglyph motifs. Moulded eaves cornice and blocking course.

In c1970 the building was used as a tea room when the grounds were opened to the public. J Low, 'William Belwood, Architect and Surveyor', Yorkshire Archaeological Journal, 56, (1984), p 142.
