pitched hipped tiled roof with C16 link chimneystack. Three casement windows.
The centre portion has a two storeyed bay dated 1637 and added then, of which
the first floor has decorative black and white scrollwork and the date and
the ground floor has been rebuilt in modern red brick. To the south of this
is a red brick porch, also added in 1637, with round-headed archway and shaped
Dutch gable. Chimneybreast on each end wall. Behind the porch is the original
wooden door surround with blank spandrels. The interior contains two inglenook
fireplaces and an original stone fireplace with blank spandrels, upright posts

features.
