roofs with rubble stacks. L-shaped range. 2 storeys plus attics. Tulip Cottage,
in range projecting towards road, has a rectangular stair projection with a
small leaded casement. Manor Cottage, in the angle of,the ranges, has renewed
casements but retains an old plank door under a stone-slated canopy. Higley's
Cottage, in the right half of the rear range, has a small-pane casement and a
doorway, both in the lower section to right of the stack; a further
single-storey section on the end of, the range is probably C19, and is built as a
grotto with an archway (now glazed) and several recesses. Steep-pitched roofs to
both ranges have a total of 4 stacks. C19 and C20 extensions project to left of
front range. Interiors: stop-chamfered beans; open fireplaces. Noted as formerly
having the date 1668 on a door. The vermiculated stonework of the grotto may
have been taken from Thomas Bushell's famous waterworks at Neat Enstone.
