Description

The front range is of two storeys and three windows, facing south to the B4393. Local shaley stone informally coursed at front, uncoursed at sides. Slate roof of low pitch hipped at each end, with tiled ridge and hips. End chimneys in C19/20 red brick. The upper windows are of 16 panes, with restored horned sashes, slightly irregularly spaced. Large early C20 bays to the ground storey with canted sides and sash windows; single panes in the sashes but of ordinary quality glass. The bay windows stand on blue brick low walls. The bay windows are linked by a small verandah acting as an open fronted porch. A feature of the verandah is a large ornamental boldly curved timber frame. Semi-glazed main door with round-headed lights. The walling each side of the door is rendered.

Extending to rear are a gabled wing at the right, with lateral chimney, and an adjacent catslide extension at the left. The rear is in red brick with blue brick quoins. Inserted windows at the sides towards the rear also dressed in blue brick. On the west side the upper masonry of the rear extension is of different workmanship to the adjacent work and is probably part of the early C20 improvements. Small rooflight at rear.

Symmetrically planned with a narrow hallway from the front door, a wider space at rear with the stairs at one side rising rear towards the front (probably relocated).
