Earliest portion of house distinguishable from later additions (early eighteenth century and later) by massive walls, in which one gun loop is still visible. Walls at N are c. 1m thick, those at S are considerably thicker, possibly to incorporate kitchens said to have been in this part of the house. There are no vaulted ceilings; above basement walls are narrower than those below. House said to have originally faced E (Bence-Jones 1978, 3).
