Grade II. House. Late C17, altered. Semi-dressed limestone to ground floor, upper storey of thin brick in English bond below sill level, and later brick above. Altered plinth, brick first floor band course. Old tile roof, hipped to right. Chimney of thin brick with 'V' nibs between right bays. 2 storeys, 3 bays.

A few fragments of brick and tile were recovered from the bottom of the modern driveway deposits as well as a fragment of dressed stone block. The fragments of brick are dated to the late 17th or 18th century and this material may be derived from repairs and alterations to the building. Clay tobacco pipes may be 18th century but the deposit also contained pottery which provided a 19th to 20th century date (B2).
