Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1820, having pedimented breakfront and single-storey wings to each end. Late nineteenth-century porch to front entrance and multiple-bay two-storey block to rear. Hipped artificial slate roof with central ashlar chimneystacks. Pitched roofs to wings, with end stacks, hipped and pitched roof to rear block, and moulded cut limestone cornice to porch. Rendered walls with dressed stone quoins and surrounds to openings. Tripartite timber sliding sash two-over-two pane windows to front elevation with one-over-one pane sidelights, segmental-headed to centre bay, and with two-over-two pane and some replacement uPVC windows to rear and rear block, all with limestone sills. Cut-stone doorcase with broken pediment, pilasters with fluted frieze, plain fanlight and timber panelled door to original entrance inside porch. Glazed panelled timber door and timber sash windows to porch. Single and two-storey roughly-coursed rubble outbuildings to west of house having cut-stone surrounds to openings and pitched slate roofs. Two-storey rendered stable block built in late nineteenth century.
An attractive and well-maintained house with the large window openings fashionable in the early nineteenth century and classical elements such as the small wings and pedimented breakfront adding interest to the form. Outbuildings also retained in good condition and significant interior elements such as stairs, panelled doors and plasterwork complete in the house.
