The centre portion of 5 windows projects with a pediment over containing a segmental-headed sash window in the centre flanked by small round windows. Central doorway, originally the front door of the house, with fluted Corinthian pilasters, curved pediment and half-glazed door. In the north-east corner a wall links this to a single-storey red brick building added by Lutyens as a large living room and new a separate flat. This has 5 windows facing south, a stone recess at its east end, a stone eaves cornice and a hipped tiled roof. Its east front consists of a recessed loggia containing a pair of stone columns in the centre supporting a pediment. Its north wall has a massive chimney breast and 3 windows. To the south-east of the main east front is a wall treated in a matching style to balance this wing. To the west of the north-east wing is the main entrance, also added by Lutyens. Nine curved steps lead to a recessed porch approached by a doorway in a stone surround with an empty cartouche over it. To the west of this entrance and balancing the north-east wing is a similar wing added by Lutyens which contained the kitchen and service quarters. This also has a massive chimney breast in the centre of its north wall and 4 windows. The interior has a good C18 staircase. Country Life Article, Volume 45, page 145.
