Appraisal
The regular form of this house is enhanced by the retention of many interesting features and material, such as the internal timber panelled shutters and the timber sash windows. The carved stone porch enlivens the façade of the house, and is a well executed feature of the building. The related outbuildings and gates contribute to the setting of the house.
