There is now a long single storey addition to the north built about 1985 according to owner, but incorporating part of an earlier outshut. Owner also stated the southernmost bay had collapsed and been rebuilt with modern materials; exterior is all concealed by whitewash. Stack shows that original roof was thatched; present smut-pantile
roof is of two pitches. The listed building description may imply that this was a hall house, with inserted stack and rebuilt parlour in 17th century.
