Farmhouse, C17, altered. White-painted roughcast on stone, slate roof on two levels. L-plan: two-bay main range with projecting two-bay left wing. Two storeys, the wing higher; plinth; south front has altered and irregularly disposed windows, three large ones in the main range and three smaller ones in the gable of the wing, one of which is the stairlight to a staircase in the re-entrant over which the roof of the wing carries down to the eaves level of the main range; no entrance on south side, but ridge chimney between the two bays of the main range suggests former baffle-entrance in line with it; wing has another ridge chimney. Right gable wall has one window on each floor, both with hoodmoulds, the lower with a double-recessed lintel and the upper with a sliding sash. Rear gable of wing has a four-light mullioned window (partly concealed by a raised tank) and remains of another window altered as a door, and at first floor a three-light casement, all these with hoodmoulds.

Interior: housepart in left bay of main range has full-span bressummer in front of modern fireplace, and two longitudinal beams, all these with cyma-stopped chamfer; wing has similar beams in front parlour and at first floor, the latter on stone corbels; parlour door with two narrow vertical recessed panels; doglegged staircase with rectangular newels, broad moulded string, turned balusters, and stout handrail.
