Appraisal
This building is enhanced by the retention of notable features such as the timber sash windows and the limestone sills. The rusticated limestone masonry walls are clearly the work of skilled craftsmen. The outbuildings to the north retain much of their original form and structure and the courtyard retains the remains of cobblestones. The house, together with the outbuildings form an interesting and complete group of structures.
