Once an important house that later became a farmhouse and has again been altered

1609. Red brick. Stone stringcourse. Horsham slab roof. Casement windows
with stone mullions and transoms. Two storeys. Four windows. The easternmost
window bay and the next but one to it project slightly. The former has a huge
window rising the whole height of the 2 storeys and containing 4 tiers of 6 lights,
of which only 4 lights are glazed in the bottom, next to bottom and top tiers.
The latter has long and short stone quoins, sprocket eaves, a hipped roof, a
cartouche in the centre and a 4 light window on each floor, the upper window
having 2 tiers but only two of the lights in the lower tier are glazed. The
window bay between these projections has another huge window rising the whole
height of the 2 storeys containing 5 tiers of 6 lights, of which only 3 lights

The westernmost window bay has a window on each floor containing 2 tiers of 3
lights, the upper lights of the first floor window blocked. Buttress at the
angle of this window bay. The porch at the other end of the old part of the
house is modern, but it contains an original stone doorway with pilasters, carved
