with small-paned cross-casement, skylight to right. Right end
of ground floor has timber lintel over later stone infill
indicating former cart entrance; stonework to left end has
coping and is continued as garden wall in snecked stone with
added brick courses. Left return has ogee-headed 1st-floor
window with C20 small-paned casement under tympanum; gable
