A distinctive house built by Major Richard Sherlock Brasier-Creagh using a combination of rubble limestone and brick detail to excellent effect. The delight of this building is that it retains it historic form and fabric, such as brick detail, ridge cresting, brick chimneystacks and large casement windows. This building is visually pleasing and its detailing makes an interesting contribution to its district.
