Double depth plan with a gabled rear projection, probably containing the stair. A crosswing at the left end under a lower slate roof is probably C17 in origin and may have formed part of a C17 house on the site. This house was probably adapted as a service wing when the early C19 block was built. L- plan. 2 storeys. The main block has deep eaves and a 5-bay symmetrical front with a central 2-leaf panelled front door below a depressed arched fanlight with ornamental glazing.

The front elevation of the wing has casement window with galzing bars and at the rear the wing has 2 late C18/early C19 first floor 16-pane sashes. An early C19 rear door to the main block has a moulded stone cornice on moulded stone consoles. The circa C19 cottage at right angles to the main block is stone rubble, partly plastered and colourwashed to the front, slate roof gabled at ends, left gable end stone stack, stone lateral stack to rear. The single depth cottage runs parallel to the crosswing across a narrow court and is linked to it by a pentice carried on posts. 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4-window front with 2 front doors.
