Description
Early 19th century twin castellated towers, linked by Gilbert Ogilvy around 1925. Stugged, ashlar sandstone; chamfered reveals, base course; hoodmoulds to pedestrian doors and lancet windows. Corbelled and gablet-coped crenellated parapets. Octagonal towers, each two storeys, divided by string course. Tall window at ground to roadside in each tower and smaller window at 1st floor; similar arrangement to drive-side. Ashlar passage link bridging towers comprised of wide pointed-arch gateway, flanked by pedestrian gateways, each with blank shield above. Parapet raised above drive arch. Square-plan, squat single-storey tower with angle buttresses adjoined to one octagonal tower, with hoodmoulded doorway partly obscured by lean-to modern porch to roadside, and with medallion plaque above window to drive-side. Late 19th century gabled addition to east. Doorways to towers under passage link, by gateways.
Gates: probably 17th century, fine two-leaf wrought iron gates and overthrow to drive arch, and possibly later gates to gateways.
