Description

It is constructed of random rubble and has a double-Roman tile roof with coped verges and brick stacks. The building has a T-plan layout and the entrance front is two storeys high, featuring a layout of 2:1:1 bays. The ground floor includes two and three-light ovolo-moulded stone-mullioned windows with drips. There is a central 20th-century gabled porch with two-light reproduction stone-mullioned windows and an inner glazed door. At the rear, there is a wing that roughly conforms to the style of the main building. Inside, there are notable features such as fireplaces set in moulded freestone surrounds.
