The house is divided into 3 units: the main house, service range and entrance range. The main house is on the W side, and has a narrow central bay and advanced gables. A narrower rear range with gables facing N and S link it to the former service range, facing N. Parallel with this is a late C19 range with entrance front facing S. Random rubble with slate roofs. The main house is 2-storey with a single end brick stack on the N side. The windows are of consistent design with segmental heads, stone sills and margin glazing. Three-bay front, with porch, on the W side. In the upper storey are cross windows and in the lower storey 3-light windows flanking the porch. The porch has a single cross window to the front under a chamfered lintel, and a raised verge, with finial, on moulded kneelers. The doorway is on the N side. The S front has a gable to the right, gablet to the left. A butt joint separates it from the later entrance range. In the upper storey are 2 cross windows. In the lower storey is a cross window to the right, and to the left an early C20 5-light bay window with transom. The N front mirrors the S front in form. Cross-windows in the upper storey; in the lower storey a 3-light window to the right, and a doorway to the left reached by stone steps, and with full-height glazing. The service range is double-fronted with a gabled porch, of 2 storeys plus attic. The windows have iron-frame lattice glazing. The attic has 2-light dormers. In the upper and lower storeys are 3-light windows under segmental heads. The porch is of coursed rubble with slate roof. On the gable end of the service wing is a single storey projection of random rubble, a slate roof, and openings with late C20 details. The entrance range is 2-storey with a centrally-placed gablet. In the upper storey are 3 equally-placed windows with horned sashes. In the lower storey is a sash window to the right, an early C20 5-light bay window in the centre, and to the left is an early C20 timber-framed porch on a stone plinth. In its E gable wall are horned sash windows in upper and lower storeys, and a door to the right.

The service wing is 2-unit with baffle entry. The ground floor has been raised above its original level. The kitchen, to the left, has 2 chamfered spine beams, probably from the earlier house, and a large fireplace with random rubble baffle walls. In the service room to the right is a bell rack, and a blocked doorway to the main house. Access to the main house and entrance range was not possible at the time of inspection (April-June 1996).
