Appraisal
A well-appointed middle-size house incorporating pleasing proportions and originally exhibiting Classically-inspired elements such as Wyatt-style tripartite window openings enhancing the elegant architectural design value of the composition. Extensive renovation works having involved the replacement of much of the original fabric leading to the erosion of much of the historic patina as a consequence the survival of some early joinery is of particular significance while the house remains of special importance for the contribution made to the group and setting values of the grounds.
