Description
Detached five-bay two-storey over half-basement country house, built c.1800, having slight breakfront to entrance bay, with interior chapel and having two-bay two-storey addition to west and range of outbuildings and walled garden to rear. Hipped slate roof and rendered walls with square-headed timber sliding sash windows, one-over-one pane except for three-over-six pane to basement. Round-headed replacement timber panelled double-leaf door, and fanlight.
Appraisal
This is a fine country house standing in its own parkland. It retains timber sash windows. The associated outbuildings and walled garden add significantly to the setting of the house. The impressive gateway at the public road, at the end of a long avenue, are a significant feature in the local landscape.
