House built about 1770 by Brereton family. Extended by William Hardy after he acquired it in 1803 - he rebuilt the east front and added a portico on the south side.
Information from (S2).
Gault brick, green slate roof. Plan is irregular. Rear extension of 1832.
Possibly rebuilt after 1770, rather than built in that year. Exact date/s of the building and the different phases are uncertain.
Stables of 1843 include a coach house and a central dovecote. They are of brick and flint with five arched openings.
The tunnel is listed. It is lined with flintwork and has a brick vault and a southern brick arch.
