Description

The lower part of the building is carried out in a red coloured ashlar sandstone, the upper floors in a greyer version of the stone. It is square in plan with chamfered corners, and set on a square podium, approached on the N side by 5 splayed steps opposite a 2-centred arched entrance, with diagonally battened doors and elaborate iron hinges. The floors are divided by strongly articulated square string courses. On all floors, similar arched Gothick 3-light windows formed in timber, developing curvilinear uncusped tracery. No hood mouldings. The short corner angles have a variety of blind arrow-loops on each floor, and rise to a recess panelled merlon higher than the crenellated parapet of the walls.

Converted to holiday let accommodation and decorated by Mrs F Williams in 1996.
