What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1800, with possibly earlier lower three-bay two-storey block to rear. Hipped and pitched slate roofs with brick and rendered chimneystacks. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings with six-over-six pane timber sliding sash windows, barred to ground floor of return. Recessed segmental-headed main door opening with timber panelled door, ornate panelled and glazed sidelights and ornate teardrop over-light. Timber battened door to return. Stone boundary walls with stone piers and cast-iron gates to garden. Stone outbuildings with slate roofs and square openings to site, one single-storey with loft, segmental-arch carriage openings and diamond-shaped vents. Rubble limestone walls with dressed octagonal-profile monolithic piers with cast-iron gates to road boundary and chamfered monolithic piers with decorative wrought-iron gates to north.
The form and scale of this house are enhanced by the retention of features such as timber sash windows, slate roof, and elaborate doorcase. There are interesting monolithic limestone piers to the gates at either end of the avenue, and there are interesting large cylindrical piers built into the walls of some of the outbuildings.
