What is recorded here

Freestanding square-plan castellated folly tower, built c.1820, with roughly-dressed sandstone walls having ashlar limestone quoins and dressings. Blocked pointed window openings. Detached five-bay two-storey house to west, built c.1820, comprising three-bay two-storey central block having castellated porch, flanked by slightly-higher single-bay two-storey blocks. Pitched artificial slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks. Rendered walls with rendered quoins. Square-headed openings with replacement windows and door.

This folly tower formerly related to Ash Park, a former demesne to the east. Though no longer functioning as a demesne group, this tower now forms part of an interesting group with the house to the west. The textural contrast between the rendered house and the limestone tower adds interest to the surrounding area.
