Slated roofs, some hipped chimneys with cornices, as on the house. Plan: a long range of stables with coach house at right-hand end. Attached to latter at right-angles is what is believed to have been a brew house, now the school gymnasium. Standing forward in the front curtilage at either end is a small house; these appear to have been linked originally by a range since demolished. The right-hand house is linked to the stables and brew house, probably part of the coach house. The left-hand house and the left end of the stables are abutted by a courtyard of what are reported to have been kennels. Exterior: single-storeyed; the houses with garrets.

At right-hand end 2 round-arched openings to coach house; plain imposts, archivolt and keystone, except that right-hand opening mutilated. Left-hand obscured by added lean-to. The houses have 3-bay fronts, the bays flanked and separated by Doric pilasters supporting an entablature with triangular pediment. Centre window with blank panel over; semicircular window in pediment. Right-hand house has 2 blocked windows and a plank door in right side wall. Left-hand house, ruinous at time of survey, has had window converted into a door and windows inserted into the side-bays. Brew house has 2 windows and 2 doorways (1 converted into a window) in the side wall facing the house; original windows have small-paned glazing, that to right with 6-paned sashes. Kennels have 2 ruined buildings flanking the entrance from the stable yard, and 2 more flanking the entrance on the opposing side. To the north-east is an arc of 8 cells with paired doorways having arches of red brick; C20 flat concrete roof. Large granite trough in front of them. To the south-west is an open space walled on the outside which contains the footings of a small square building. (The Buildings of England: Cherry B: Devon (2nd edition): 1989-: 883).
