The fortified manor house dates to 1459, with a 17th century wing, and was built for James Metcalfe. It has a single storey hall flanked by a four storey west tower and two storey east tower. There is a south-east wing that springs from the east tower and a south porch in the corner. The west tower has a door in a 19th century arch on the left return and a three light window on the ground floor, two light window on the first floor and a single light on the second and third floors. The ground and first storeys are stepped and the parapet has large embattlements.
