Pitched slate roof with rendered end chimneystacks, recent roof light to north hipped roof. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls to front elevation, roughcast rendered walls to other elevations. Square-headed window openings throughout, with fixed timber windows to attic and to first floor north elevation of return, timber casement window to north elevation, replacement uPVC windows with render surrounds to front elevation, recent timber windows and glazed timber doors to recent extension, replacement uPVC windows to other openings.

Appraisal
Stocky end chimneystacks and steep pitched roof indicative of an early date. Pleasing elevation created by regular symmetrical fenestration. Enhanced by decorative applied render to front elevation. Significant late seventeenth century building which is enhanced and contextualised by nearby outbuildings.
