North wing coursed rubble, main block heavy rubble heightened in coursed rubble, south-east wing squared tooled stone; slate roofs.
West front: main block 3 storeys, 6 irregular bays. C20 glazed door in former window opening with altered sash to left and 2 12-pane sashes to right; lst floor C20 small-paned casements in old openings, and blocked opening to left; all openings in C18 chamfered stone surrounds. 2nd floor small 12-pane Yorkshire sash beneath eaves, 2 similar windows to right and one to left now blocked. Stepped and corniced ashlar end and ridge stacks. To left, projecting end of 2-storey north wing; blocked arch with shouldered segmental head and drawbar tunnel, small chamfered window to right possibly reset, low clasping buttresses at left angle. Coped reverse-stepped gable to right, roof hip-ended to left. South front: gable end of main block shows early Cl9 sashes in older openings. South-east wing 2 storeys, 3 bays, band at lst floor level. Altered door with tall 6-pane overlight in lst bay; 12-pane sash windows. Stepped and corniced ashlar end stacks, that to right with circular stone pot. North front: various sash windows; medieval chamfered plinth which continues on left return. Rear elevation; south-east wing has projecting multi-stepped stack carrying chimney with circular stone pot.
Interior; main block, early C18 fireplace in moulded stone surround, panelled shutters and 6-panel doors. North wing, west part ('the tower') has stone barrel vault and old doorway with chamfered jambs, column-on-vase stairhead balustrade.
The north wing is probably a C13 or C14 undefended hall house; the 2 opposed doors indicate a passage through the solar undercroft, c.f. Burneside Hall and Lammerside Castle (Westmorland). The thick (O.95m) walls and massive rubble of the main block suggest a C16 date.
