Description

Detached multiple-bay two-storey house, built c.1820 with colonnade added later. The house is finished in render. To the south-east side there is a later canted two-storey bay, while to the north-west there is a stable range with an Italianate tower, all of which was added c.1875. The panelled double front door has a plain fanlight and a plain granite surround. A long colonnade with Doric columns spans most of the ground floor south-west front. Window openings are flat-headed and most have one over one timber sash frames; there are some fixed lights and some casement replacement frames. The pitched roof is finished with natural slate and has cast-iron rainwater goods. The house is set within a small demesne.

Appraisal

This early 19th century house has been developed considerably, the later improvements and extensions combining with the original structure to make a notable building that adds considerable interest to the landscape.
