Detached five-bay two-storey house, built 1973 to south. Road entrance has round-plan cast-iron gate piers and recent wrought-iron gate.
The simple form and solid appearance of this outbuilding is typical of the farm buildings associated with medium-sized country houses. It gives an idea of the quality of the now demolished house it served.
