lower end was also remodelled and extended to form kitchen cross-wing in overall L-
shape plan. Stacks rebuilt in brick at upper end of earlier range and hall stack in
angle of L-shape. Further tall brick stack to kitchen range. 2 storeys 4-window

casement to right. Upper end has off-centre half-glazed door with small window and
2-light casement to right. Chamfered beams to hall and chamfered lintel to hall
stack. Much of the internal joinery is intact, with an unusual C17 staircase
handrail, of 2 tiers of turned oak balusters. 3 chamfered and stopped doorframes at
head of stairs, 2 with ovolo chamfers and bar stops, 1 straight chamfered. Hearth
in room off left from stair landing has herringbone slate back and raised ovolo-
moulded lintel. 2 closed trusses with lath and plaster partitions at each end of
