mostly square-headed; some segmental-headed. West elevation:
originally symmetrical; 7 bays, pedimented inner bay with segmental-arched pend (similar (blocked) cart-arches in outer
bays), oculus in tympanum; pair large square-headed (?later)
cart arches either side, windows now inserted, single 1st

placed openings, including cottage doors, and corniced
stacks. East range has cartshed with series of square-headed
openings to north and to south elevations (these mostly
