Description

Symmetrical 3-window main range with rear gabled wing resulting in an L-shaped plan, with a further extension to the rear. Two storeys and a cellar. Constructed of rubble masonry under a tiled roof. Two external gable stacks to main range and large masonry lateral stack to E side of rear wing. The main range is orientated E-W and the front is to the N. Central panelled and ribbed front door with 3-pane overlight, flanked by multi-pane windows, with similar but shorter windows in the upper storey. The windows are paired sashes, each with 8-panes in the lower storey and 6-panes above. All the openings are under segmental heads with voussoirs and Tudor-style hoodmoulds typical of Glanusk Estate buildings

The E gable of the main range has an 8-pane sash to the L of the stack at ground floor, with stone sill and lintel. The S gable end of the rear wing has a 3-light casement multi-paned window to each storey, both with voussoirs and Tudor-style hoodmoulds. There is a rear entrance in the centre of the main range. It consists of a planked door under a stone-tiled canopy. Above it is a 3-light casement window under a segmental arch but without a hoodmould. To the W (L) of the rear entrance is a catslide outshut to the main range. The W wall of the house is rendered and there are 2-light casement windows in the outshut, 1 to each storey. A rear single-storey wing projects from the outshut. It has a stone-tiled steeply pitched hipped roof which extends to form a pentice. The eaves are supported on timber posts on the E and S sides and rebuilt brick pillars on the W side. There is a planked door into the E side of this wing and a C20 3-light casement window to the W side.

Wide central stair hall with dog-leg staircase to rear. Large main rooms to L and R with panelled doors. Steps lead down to the service areas in the catslide section. The dining room is located in the rear wing.
