Considerable alterations and enlargements 1908-10 and subsequently have nevertheless remained in keeping. As built the entrance front had a recessed centre flanked by projecting wings dressed with giant order of Corinthian quoin pilasters. It is now much altered with later wings and entrance but retaining one of the original wings with a pediment added, all the alterations in a matching stucco style of 1908-10. The garden elevation to south remains unaltered but extended. As built of 5 bays with a shallow pedimented centre break of 3 bays, all articulated by a giant order of Corinthian pilasters on moulded bases rising from plinth. First floor sill course, deep frieze and dentil cornice, parapet. Windows have shallow architrave surrounds, glazing bar sashes intact to first floor. Slate roof. In 1908-10 five bays were added to the west in matching style with the subsequent addition of an attic storey. The 3 bay west return has the order returned supporting a pediment. The original east return retains 2 similar bays divided by a pair of giant pilasters. The interior was much altered in 1908-10, but the main staircase appears to be original, rising in a rectangular well, open string with cast iron bannisters.
