Historic Environment Record entry
Listed building
A range of 19th century buildings, with earlier origins, that retains some interesting historic features. Main house with an east dower-wing and west service-wing.
An open geometric timber-work porch enclosing a timber and half glazed door with ornate glazed over-light (this late 19th century porch is a rare survival and one of the best examples seen of a local tradition of geometric elaborately constructed porches and gates).
