The plan was of central chimney type, facing south, modified by the addition of an extra room and a chimney stack at the east end of the front, and in the C19th, small additions were built at the back and at the West end. he South front has been covered with rough-cast and much altered. The rear retains the original timber-framing and brick filling and at the East end has a gable with a simple form of truss. the chimney stacks have two square shafts each, set diagonally. Condition
