5-bay centre formerly 2½ storeys, lowered to 2 storeys in 1970's. One-bay links
to wings which project to form a courtyard. Centre block has rusticated quoins,
renewed 12-pane sashes in architraves and a mid-C19 porch with pedimented doorway,
rusticated quoins and cornice. Wings 5 bays, 1:3:1. Projecting 3-bay centres with
rusticated quoins. 1½ storeys. Windows in architraves. Right and left, on ground

The ends of the wings have pedimented gables. Later 3-bay extension, formerly a

Inside much changed but mainly with re-used material. Many original doors and
window reveals, and one good late C18 wood fireplace with Adam-style columns and
a frieze of rustic scenes and sea shells presumably designed for Admiral Roddam.

In former kitchen, now the garage, a dog's treadmill for turning the spit. Wooden
with many little turned balusters.

Rainwater heads, one dated 1783.
