Exterior
A painted stucco, Regency-style, 3-window, 3-storeyed symmetrical south façade, and similar treatment to the east return side, disguise the fact that the two main phases of building were probably in the later C16 and later C17: a 2-bay, 1½-storey range on a N-S axis, now forming the rear service wing, and a 2-bay C17 range added across its S end, extended by half a bay to the west and raised and remodelled in the earlier C19.
The S front has a stuccoed band over the 1st floor and a shallow-pitched slated roof with prominently oversailing boarded eaves (carried round to form a pedimental east gable); 3 large rectangular windows at ground floor, that in the centre furnished with French windows and that to the right false, all formerly protected by a glazed verandah roof carried out at the ends; three 4-pane sashes at 1st floor, each with a swept canopy roof and formerly with a balconette also, and 3 small lunettes at 2nd floor, each with a cast-iron balconette. There are chimneys at both gables and a coupled ridge chimney close to the west gable. (Attached to the west gable wall is a very high screen wall continued from the former coach-house, q.v.). A stone terrace along the front, with urns on panelled pedestals (and formerly covered by the verandah) returns round the east end, mounting by a broad flight of steps to the E entrance front. The principal features of this are a broad 2-storey bow in the gabled return, which has a large tripartite sashed window on each floor, the upper furnished with a cast-iron balconette and a swept canopy roof; and a wide flat-roofed porch in a stepped-down bay to the right, with 2 pairs of fluted columns and an entablature, protecting a doorway with panelled and glazed double doors. This doorway opens into a 2-storey addition built in the re-entrant angle of the rear wing, the upper floor having a 4-pane sash with a canopy like the others. The 2-bay rear wing has (inter alia) a large tripartite small-paned window to the right, a gabled dormer to each bay, and a large stepped extruded chimney to the rear gable wall.
