Recent single-storey glazed conservatory to east gable. Pitched slate roofs, having decoratively carved bargeboards to oversailing gables, rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls with square-headed one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows, barred to basement, all windows having limestone sills. Cut limestone date plaque to gable-front.

Appraisal
This fine early-eighteenth century bears evidence of having built in phases, in addition to the early twentieth-century addition. Its fine doorcase and later bargeboards provide decorative foci to the house.
