History
According to Palmer, the house was described as new in 1726, and the frontage range facing appears to be of about this date. Parallel rear range is a later addition of c1830.
Exterior
Render over brick with slate roof with end wall stacks. 2 storeys, 5 window range with central entrance.
Pedimented doorcase, flanked by 3 flush framed sash windows to left and 1 to right (with internal shutters). Similar windows to upper storey. Canted full-height extension against right hand gable probably added when parallel rear range was built; the interior of the building (including the staircase) was almost certainly remodelled at the same time.
