Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1840, having single-bay single-storey addition to east, side-entry porch to front, lean-to addition to west, and recent extension to rear elevation. Hipped slate roof to house with pitched slate roofs to porch and side additions and having gablets to first floor front windows with carved timber bargeboards. Limestone chimneystack to house with rendered coping, and replacement uPVC rainwater goods. Rubble limestone walls with roughly dressed quoins. Square-headed window openings throughout having stone and replacement render sills and dressed stone lintels having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows to front, mainly one-over-one pane to rear, and replacement uPVC window to rear addition. Square-headed door openings, having replacement timber-glazed door to front and replacement battened timber doors elsewhere. Rubble limestone enclosing wall to west having square-plan gate piers with rusticated capping and replacement double-leaf timber gate.
This well built and maintained house is enlivened by the dormer windows and the porch projection. The rubble stone enclosing wall and timber gateway complement the house and its setting.
