casement on both floors and a blocked attic light. In the angle with the hall
range is a partly timber-framed lean-to outshut with a 2-light C20 casement
and also, in its north-west side, a doorway enclosed by a half-glazed porch.
There is a single-storey wing adjoining the north-east end, enclosing the
external chimney and having a 2-light C19 casement and a door in its front
elevation.
