Description
A country house, dating to the 17th century, now divided into two separate dwellings. The building is constructed of roughcast, with a double Roman tile roof and large brick stacks. The long, eleven-bay facade is two storeys high and features two-light mullioned and transomed windows. The original main entrance is located in the sixth bay, leading to a six-panelled door surmounted by a transom light and sheltered by a plaster shell hood supported on ornamental scroll brackets. A further door opening has been inserted into the seventh bay.
The interior retains a staircase, panelling, and plasterwork. Historic documentary research is anticipated to provide further detail.
