Detached six-bay two-storey country house over basement, built c.1730, with two-bay pedimented central breakfront. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and carved limestone eaves course. Roughcast rendered walls. Timber sliding sash windows, six-over-six pane to ground and first floors and three-over-three pane to basement, with cut limestone sills set in square-headed openings.

This country house retains its original form and many interesting features and materials such as the slate roof, limestone sills and timber sash windows. The door surround is particularly notable in that it is well designed and executed. The façade is enlivened by interesting architectural features such as the pedimented breakfront and lunette.
