Description

House, rubble stone formerly roughcast, with slate roof and flat boarded eaves. Two-storey, four-window W front range of 6-pane sashes with stone lintels. Straight joint suggests that left half is original and right, S section, is added. Roughcast chimneys on left end and centre ridge. N end wall has deep bracketed eaves, radiating-bar oval light at first floor left, over C20 door in early C19 recessed doorcase with fluted columns and half-elliptical radiating bar fanlight. There was formerly a projecting columned porch. To left, corner stair projection with continuous walling, canted angle with long arched stair-light and canted hipped roof. This part returns back to join a rear wing with tall E end 2-shaft stack and 16-pane sash each floor N. The roof of this rear wing is hipped at W to join main range, so is probably added. C20 additions behind S end range.

Rear axial passage with stair off to left of entry. 6-panel doors to rooms with reeded doorcases. Stair curves up in semi-circle, balusters removed. Sideboard recess in N room, panelled shutters to windows. One upper room said to have coved ceiling now concealed. Large beam to rear kitchen fireplace.
