Eight-over-eight timber sliding sash window to north elevation and six-over-nine timber sliding sash windows to ground floor of east elevation. Double-leaf French windows with overlights to south facing canted bow ended bay and east elevation. Round-headed opening to main entrance (west elevation), with limestone step, timber glazed double-leaf door, timber glazed side panels and spoked fanlight. Square-headed opening to side entrance (north elevation) having replacement timber glazed door. Located in own grounds one raised terrace with limestone steps providing access between levels.

An interesting mid nineteenth century addition to a predominantly eighteenth century village. Its four-bay form masks a considerably larger structure, which has been extended over time to maximise views and outlook, particularly with the addition of the section with the full-height three-bay bows. The survival of historic features adds much to its character and charm.
