| Summary : Early 18th century house incorporating medieval or 16th century fabric, enlarged to the rear in the later 18th century. The south elevation is of two storeys and five bays, symmetrical; the rear elevation is similar to the front. The interior was renewed after a serious fire in 1969. The central spine wall, the rear wall of the early 18th century house is 1.2m thick and is probably the remnant of an earlier defensible structure, possibly a tower house. |
