the north-west wing, single pair in the south-east wing and another to left of the through passage possibly remain. The

elsewhere in the house, Through passage stack said to have stone jambs and lintel, stud and plank partition to inner
rood with stone jambs and lintel, evidence suggesting that room originally panelled with timber-framed partition to
