Description
A long E-W central range with parallel ranges built to the L and R sides to create a symmetrical U-shaped S-facing front. Of rubble stone with slate roofs. The central range has a hipped roof with ball finials. Facing the front it retains arches of 2 openings for coaches, but beneath them a wide opening under a timber lintel has been inserted, while the former loft above has 3 inserted half dormers and stone stack to the R. The wings both have stone cupolas with swept caps to the outer ends of their roofs. The wing on the L side, facing the small courtyard, has 2 boarded doors and a horizontal-sliding sash window on the L side, all under segmental stone heads. In the upper storey is an octagonal window incorporating a casement to the L, and a polygonal-headed shuttered opening to the R. The outer (L) angle of the wing is rounded in the lower storey. Behind (W) this wing is an added stable lean-to. Facing S it has a stable door to the L, a horizontal-sliding sash to the centre and an inserted top-hung casement upper R. The rear has a stable door and is extended on the L (N) side in brick behind the central range.
The wing on the R side of the central range is similar. It has 2 boarded doors and horizontal sash window, above which is a polygonal-headed shuttered opening upper R and a small inserted similar opening upper L. Its S wall has 2 narrow vents below the eaves. Its added rear lean-to has, in the S wall, a stable door with horizontal-sliding sash to the L, while the E wall has a single segmental-headed sash window. Further R (N) is an integral higher 2-storey single-bay wing built partly against the end wall of the central range. It has a boarded door lower L, and L of the abutting courtyard wall, and a fixed small-pane iron-framed window upper centre. A stack rises from the eaves at the NE angle. The rear of the central range has 2 inserted half dormers, a sash window R of centre, while a similar window L of centre is replaced by a doorway in a half-glazed porch. A modern hay store projects from the R-hand (W) end.
