Exterior
House, grey limestone, some squared, some rubble, and slate close-eaved roofs. Roughly T-shaped, medieval, with first floor hall, and cross-wing with added. Hall on E-W axis is over an undercroft, extending under cross-wing. Windows are generally leaded metal windows of the 1930s and 1950s.
Hall S has three long leaded windows with flat heads, 1950. Undercroft has a segmental-pointed window to left and a window to right, against cross-wing projection. W end has squared stonework, stone corniced W stack, and large pointed window on left, grey stone, chamfered former door removed from hall S, apparently medieval, but said to be a C18 insertion there.
Cross wing S section older. This projects with broad slightly half-hipped roof (replacing a parapet with chimneys removed 1979). Blocked pointed chamfered medieval doorway in W side wall (steps removed 1979), square C20 window above. S end has squared stonework, corbelled upper floor with two square C20 windows (three windows and parapet with three chimneys are in 1853 view), over giant pointed recess with cut stone voussoirs, framing lower floors. Pointed chamfered medieval doorway to undercroft porch with square window to left. Tiny windows above under arch apex: a small one in stone frame to left, a blank panel to centre and a tiny lancet to right.
