Description

Tower House is a building with unpainted render and slate roofs, featuring a two-storey, three-window northern front and a hipped roof. Atop the ridge is a very ornate lead clock tower. The tower has a herring-bone pattern sloping base, a cornice, and a clock stage with a clock on the south side and blank roundels on the other three faces. It includes angle piers, a cornice, and an octagonal cupola that transitions from a square base, with turned balusters and an ogee octagonal dome topped with an iron vane.

The northern front has four-pane sash windows on each side and a smaller pair in the center on the first floor, while the ground floor features an unaligned pair, a long six-pane casement, a door with an overlight, and an eight-pane sash window. There is a 20th-century lean-to on the eastern end. The southern side has a rendered stack at the eaves and a single-storey coach-house extending south, with a roof hipped at the southern end and two large plain carriage entries with timber lintels on the eastern side. The main range includes an eight-pane sash window on the ground floor to the right, two four-pane sashes on the first floor to the right, and a 20th-century window on the first floor to the left. The clock mechanism in the tower is said to be dated 1858.
