Description

Small one-and-a-half storey rectangular building of rubble construction, set into the steep slope of the hill. Graded slate roof with slab-coped and kneelered gable parapets; squat end chimney to S gable with moulded capping and weathercoursing. Gabled dormer windows to both roof pitches with kneelered and slab-coped gable parapets; modern windows to primary openings. Whitened entrance front (W) with angled entry and boarded door to low, partly sub-terranean modern extension at L. 6-pane casement to ground floor with blocked original opening at L. Similar window to rear, and two small, square windows to the upper S gable. A modern rubble terrace wall adjoins to the W. Adjoining the gatehouse to the rear (NW), and continuing uphill for some 50m, is a dry-built boulder-rubble boundary wall, probably of C17 origin. This terminates at the upper drive and is contemporary with the boulder-built enclosing wall to the NW of the Parc complex.

Single-room floors, the upper floor open to the roof. Slate-stone steps to this at L of entrance with re-used C17 balustrading; flagged ground floor. 2-bay pegged oak collar truss roof with original purlins.
