What is recorded here

Detached country house, built c.1770, with three-bay two-storey over half-basement front façade and five-bay rear façade. Now in use as private house and undergoing renovations. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Square-headed openings with timber sliding sash windows, six-over-six pane with three-over-three pane to basement, with cut limestone sills except for rear of basement. Elliptical-headed door opening with timber panelled door, fanlight and sash sidelights. Flight of stone steps up to door. Outbuildings to site. Three-bay lodge to site entrance with advanced central bay, hipped slate roof, rendered roughly-dressed limestone walls.

The elevated position of this house makes it a significant feature over the surrounding countryside. Its appearance is enhanced by a sympathetic refurbishment with the slate roof and timber sash windows being retained and repaired. Its two main façades differ in their arrangements, but are both typical of elegant eighteenth-century proportions and scale.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
