symmetrical between the chimney stacks with a central C20 front door with a flat

bars; additional doorway into store room at extreme left. The rear elevation has a
back door to right of centre below a 2-light casement with square leaded panes, a
doorway at the extreme right and 1 ground floor 2-light casement with glazing bars ;
the outshut has casement windows.
Interior : Not thoroughly inspected but the right hand room has 2 roughly chamfered

Other features may survive and an inspection of the roof timbers might necessitate a
revision of the suggested dating.
