Description
This is an 18th-century farmhouse, incorporating reused 16th-century stone-mullioned windows. The farmhouse is constructed of coursed and squared rubble, with coped verges to the roof and brick stacks. It is two storeys high and has three bays. The ground floor features a three-light stone-mullioned window with square-paned leaded lights. The first floor has three-light casements, also with square-paned leaded lights and quadrants. A central door opening is framed by a moulded stone architrave with a ledge hood. The door itself is a six-panelled design, with the top two panels glazed. A wing projects at right angles to the rear, featuring coping and a tall finial. A brick forecourt wall has ramped freestone coping and a central gateway.
