Dog kennels, now derelict, probably late C18th. Limestone rubble with
sandstone dressings and brick inner walls. A sham castle with 2 round
towers flanking a lower central section of square plan, all with parapets
with weathered copings in front of brick vaults, any other roof covering
now missing. On the west side each tower has a chamfered doorway on the
ground floor and an arrow slit on the 1st floor, the right-hand one having
a plain stone surround, the left-hand one having lost its dressings. The
central section has a chamfered doorway with semi-circular head flanked on
each side by an arrow slit, the right-hand one retaining its plain stone
surround. On the east side each tower has an oculus with plain stone
surround on the ground floor and an opening now with no dressings on the
1st floor. The central section has a doorway with plain stone surround
and ogee head, now blocked, flanked by arrow slits with stone surround.
Inside are brick vaults, those to the central section supported on brick
piers.
