South front: 23 bays in length with lateral slightly projecting wings of3 bays. Stone bands between floors. Central courtyard portal with shouldered stone surround and consoles to sides supporting a cornice. The portal was widened in the early C20 to accommodate motor vehicles. Windows to either side have horned sash frames of 3 x 4 panes to ground floor, and 3 x 2 panes to the first floor, all with splayed heads and stone cills. Apart from the outward-facing elevations, the remaining parts of the complex have been remodelled, internally and externally, and extended within the courtyard, to provide domestic facades, using C20 components and materials. However, the building remains listed for group value, in recognition of the importance of its massing and exterior character to the setting of Tabley House (qv).
