Original plan rectangular with small projecting wings at each end of the south front, and a lower service wing on the west. c1797 the south-east wing was enlarged, the service wing extended to the north, and a further service block added at the south-west angle - thus destroying the original symmetry and producing quite a picturesque irregular composition.
