Now in use as private house. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and uPVC rainwater goods. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with mainly double replacement one-over-one pane sliding sash timber windows, all having limestone sills. Round-headed replacement window to rear extension. Square-headed door opening, with timber panelled door, overlight and sidelights and limestone step. Square-headed door opening with glazed door and overlight to south elevation. Paired painted rendered piers to site, having double-leaf cast-iron gate. Outbuildings to rear, having coursed rubble limestone walls with inset date plaque 1897and having brick dressings to square-headed window and door openings and segmental integral carriage arch. Cobbling to yard and flight of limestone steps to garden.
This elegant, nineteenth-century house is attractively situated in landscaped surrounds and retains a number of original features including its timber panelled door. The house is thought to have been built at the miller's house for the neighbouring corn mill. The plaque on the outbuilding is interesting, as it refers to Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee.
