Full Description
February 1977. Visit.
17th century house, brick. Ornate shaped gables with central blocked window. Central internal stacks to gables - how does this affect blocked windows in south gable? Heavy Georgian porch. Good condition.
E. Rose (NAU), 23 February 1977.
1983 listing (S1) adds T-shaped building. Main east façade is of two storeys and attics, three bays. Frieze of ashlar blocks. Rusticated brick quoins, central doorway. Large external southwest stack now cut off at eaves. Rear wing has central and gable stacks and wooden-cross windows. Limestone plinth also, now covered over.
The ashlar blocks are presumably reused from priory (NHER 8005).
