Condition of building unchanged. The two round-headed doorways have been renewed, probably in the 19th century, and the stone screens in the lower windows may have been inserted then, but the battlements are probably original, compare the Hall wings of the same date. Only some upper windows blocked, in brick inside and carrstone outside. Pigeon hole over door on north with landing platform; was building later used as dovecot?
