Above description is correct.
The northeast gable wall is of brick arranged in diaperwork with the polygonal buttresses as described, though the gables themselves, like the roof, are renewed. A large blocked window in this wall.
In the façade (southeast) the later windows occupy the site of the older ones, and there is one central small blocked window. One chimney is multi-angled and set at right angles to the building; the other, set lengthwise, is similar but with a twisted separate stack at its end. Listed (S2).
