Large farmhouse. Largely C17 with early C19 alterations and refacing. Red brick with stone dressings, quoins and bands at floor level. The C19 front is in ashlar. Tiled roofs with brattished verge parapets and finials; massive side stacks, triple shafted to final stage. Plan of two parallel ranges. West front (facing road) of two storeys and gable lit attics;; three flush gables, whose crenellated verge parapets are part of the early C19 plan to Gothicise the building, rebuilt with quatrefoil windows over four light (probably C19) chamfered mullion windows to first and ground floor. Central gable is fronted by a three storey (but only reaching up to eaves level) flat roofed porch of square plan; three light chamfered mullion windows over a heavy Tudor-arched lintel to an entrance (now blocked). East front: of similar layout but all refronted in early C19 with raised strings (stepped over windows) and with Tudor-arched tripartite sash windows to first floor, similar French casements to ground all flanked by pointed arch sashes and combined under the central gable with a Tudor- arched segmental head French casement over a delicate colonnaded porch with cornice, fleuron and triglyph frieze on clasped, clustered columns over central entrance which has segmental arch, fanlight and double part-glazed doors. Interior: full height entrance hall with delicate Gothick plasterwork and cantilevered stone stair with cast iron balustrade.
