Farmhouse and barn under one roof, C18, altered, now house. Watershot coursed sandstone and random rubble, stone slate roof with 2 ridge chimneys. Four bays , the 1st and 2nd originally the barn. Two storeys: principal feature of interest is left gable wall, at south west or weather end, which projects to front and rear and rises above eaves to stepped and embattled parapet, pierced at the sides and at the apex with round openings: this is a windbreaker to prevent damage to roof, said to have been rebuilt in 1879 to replace a similar feature. Other features include segmental arched wagon entrance to 2nd bay now glazed as window, 3 breathers under the eaves of the former barn, coupled horizontal rectangular windows at ground floor of 3rd bay (glazing altered) and 6-light flush mullion window above (2 centre lights anciently blocked). Other openings altered. Fourth bay of random rubble with quoins projects slightly and may be earlier.
