almost square, rectangular window openings with rusticated
stone jambs and flat arches with keystone. 3 loading doors at
level between ground and first storeys in plain openings with
segmental dressed stone arches. Similar openings on opposite
SE side. Some of the window openings are blocked and some of
the frames seem to be later insertions. The SW end has wide
full-height doorway with rusticated stone jambs and with eaves
above projecting to form a canopy. This opening is not shown
on the 1846 or 1849 prints. The opposite NE end has ground
storey opening with rusticated stone jambs and probably later
timber lintel with relieving arch. The ground level has been
raised a few feet around the building. Later floors inserted
inside. The roof has queen-post trusses. The NW front is not
depicted on the tithe map of 1840, but is illustrated in
prints of 1846 and 1849.
