House, late C17, altered, with C19 former smithy. Slobbered rubble with slate roof.

Gable chimneys have brick caps. Projecting brick weathering on the left-hand (east) gable wall suggests that a lower building with thatched roof once adjoined. The single-storey smithy now adjoins under a monopitch roof and extends to north and south of the main house. Its east wall has a wide doorway with quoined reveals and windows with plain reveals. The house is entered through a porch at the rear which leads to a baffle entry against a former firehood. The chamfered and stopped bressumer remains, and supports 2 chamfered and stopped axial main joists.
