Timber framed with plastered infill; partly rebuilt and extended in coursed yellow/brown sandstone rubble with grey sandstone rubble with grey sandstone quoins and red brick window heads; partly pebbledashed; plain tile roofs. Irregular plan; c.1600 flush cross- wing with C18 range to right and later additions at rear. Framing: square panels, formerly 4 from sole plate to wall plate (ground-floor underbuilt up to 2 panels high), with parallel diagonal struts forming lozenge patterns. 2 storeys. Integral brick end stack to right, integral lateral brick stack to left and integral lateral C20 brick stack at rear. 3-window front; 3-light C19 wooden casements and central first-floor 2-light wooden casement , all except first-floor left- hand window with segmental heads; central C20 boarded door with gabled porch. Collar and tie-beam truss exposed in left-hand gable with parallel diagonal struts, and v-struts with quatrefoil panel in apex. Interior: left-hand ground-floor front room has chamfered cross-beamed ceiling and large open fireplace; square-panelled timber framed internal cross-wall between c.1600 range and C18 addition (probably former external wall). The house formerly had a 2-bay hall range to the left with an attached barn. One bay of the hall range still survives attached to the barn (q.v.) but the other has been demolished (probably when the house was extended to the right in the C18) separating the two buildings. The rear part of the house was formerly a separate malt-house.
