Probably c1830 when the house was rebuilt by William Hollis, paper maker of Linnet Mill, Mounton and Sheriff of Monmouthshire in 1831. The outhouses have been converted to housing, the stable block is currently being converted.

The front (garden) elevation has a two window centrepiece with central arched door and arched windows on either side. Hipped roof with two stacks. The flanking wings each have three openings with arched heads in recesses. Some changes, under conversion to housing at the time of visit.

To the right the wall curves inwards to the stable yard entrance with boarded gates. Further single storey ranges to right with one cross frame window. The garden front of these was not seen at the time of resurvey but they have been converted to housing.
