Large 2-storey gentry house of complex plan, enlarged and extended over centuries, now of predominantly C18 character. Built of rubble masonry, rendered elevations throughout; modern slate roof with rendered axial and gable stacks, now with tiled coping and yellow clay flues. Windows are predominantly small-paned hornless sashes with slate sills. The principal elevation faces W, a 5-window range with projecting wing to L (N) joined at the corner, and to R (S); the main block extends beyond the advanced C18 W wing to the S as a single window range (the W end of the SE wing). Backing onto an axial stack, the entrance is now a modern boarded door offset slightly right R (S) of the 5-window range, in a continuous ground floor lean-to addition; ground floor windows are paired 12-pane sashes, first floor 12-pane sashes set directly under the eaves (an 8-paned sash to far R end). The continuation of the main range to the S has a small fire or closet window to the ground floor and a sash window of intermediate height above. The projecting wings have planned fenestration of predominantly 12-paned sash windows. The S wall of the NW wing is a 2-window range with windows offset to the W end, the W gable return has single ground and 1st floor windows offset to the L (N) and the N wall has single ground and 1st floor window offset to the E. The N wall of the S wing has a single ground floor window offset to the W with a 1st floor window offset to its L (E); there is another 1st floor window, an 8-pane horned sash, offset to the far L (E) end. The S wall of the W wing has a single ground and 1st floor window to the L (W) end and a blocked ground floor opening to the R. The broad gable at the S end of the main block has 3 ground and 1st floor windows and a single window set in the gable apex; to the R (E) the elevation continues along the S side of the SE wing, ground floor with 12-pane sash to far right, 1st floor with 2 circular lights offset to R (E) end. The E (rear) elevation has the SE, hipped roofed, wing at the far L (S) end, a 5-window range extends N with 2 gabled projections offset to L. The entrance is through a single-storey porch to the L (S), the main doorway with a wide studded door (probably to the former main entrance to the house); to the R (N) is a single-storey hipped roof added wing. The fenestration is scattered with single and paired sash windows along the range. There is a modern cambered-headed window in the E end of the single storey wing, and modern lights in the 2-window block to the far R (N); a 9-paned ground floor window in a blocked doorway (modern doorway to L) and single paned casements set under the eaves above.
