Rendered walls with limestone quoins and string course between floors. Segmental-headed openings with timber sliding sash windows and limestone sills. Projecting porch to entrance. Farmyard complex to west, comprising four ranges of single-storey buildings set around central courtyard. Pitched slate roofs. Rubble stone walls with red brick and limestone dressings to openings. Timber fittings to some openings. Pair of cast-iron gates flanked by cast-iron piers and pedestrian gates to entrance, set in rendered walls.
