transomed window at ground floor (outer lights blocked), an inserted casement
at 1st floor, and a 3-light attic window with hoodmould; the turret at the
at the rear corner has a blocked doorway on the west side, a 2-light window
above, and a similar window in the rear (blocked). The rear has inter alia a
large chimney flush with the rear wall.
