Twin-gabled entrance front facing the main road with later

light C19 casement to the ground floor; two 3-light canted oriel
windows on projecting moulded brackets with simple chip-carved
decoration to the first floor; 2 small 3-light windows with some
diamond-leaded panes to the attic. Two 3-light casements one with
leaded panes to the extension. Projecting open-sided 2-storey
porch at the centre of the early range. Wooden bench seats with
tall straight plank backs inserted on the ground floor; early

sundial with moulded hood and inscription 'L.A.= GWINNETH 1661' at
the top below the window; single-light window with ovolo-moulded
surround and hood to the attic. Two large chimney gables and two
2-light ovolo-moulded stone-mullioned casements at the rear where a
gabled 2-storey brick porch-like projection conceals an early plank
door with fleur-de-lys ended hinges each bearing the date '1661'
within a round-headed surround with keystone and imposts.
Segmental-headed 2-light casements to the brick extension to the
