Historic Environment Record entry

Listed building

The house retains most of its original mid-18th century character and interior features.

This is a fine building of high scenic importance, it greatly enhances this remote coastal area.

Shown on the Richmond Map of 1795.

Main five-bay, two-storey house with modern west garage and a north extension.

Central entrance, single-pile. The staircase is painted and of the X-frame type with flat-topped handrail, stick balusters and plain section newel posts circa 1750.

In the ground floor east room is a stone fireplace which appears to have been altered, this was probably done in the late 19th century.

Both ground floor rooms have beams with beaded edges. Original doors, of two-field panels with typical architrave mouldings, survive throughout circa 1750.

The original pegged A-frame timber roof also survives complete.
