The Abbey is a house dating from the early 18th century, with later 18th and 19th century additions and 20th century alterations. It is constructed of coursed rubble with brick detailing, and ashlar dressings. The roof is covered in pantiles, with raised and coped gables, kneelers, and two gable and three ridge brick stacks. The house is two storeys plus attics, and features quoins and glazing bar sashes throughout.
