window to the front, a lettered memorial plaque above this

windows with raised plain surrounds, and the gable of the wing
at the south end has a gabled extension to the centre, a
similar window either side and another above. The roof has a
long low lantern (its eaves at the level of the ridge), with 5
segmental-headed lights and oversailing bracketed eaves to a
swept hipped roof. (East side, abutting adjoining cottage, has
no windows.)
INTERIOR: panelled dado, chancel pews with carved ends and
