Farmhouse. C17 altered C18 or C19 and late C20. Brick with stone dressings to earlier windows. Stone slate roof. A two-bay main range with a taller, gabled projecting cross-wing to the left, the rear bay of which has been demolished (1980s) and a set-back two-bay mono-pitched wing to the right, the front bay of which has been demolished but whose rear roof pitch and rear wall is common to the main range. Projecting from the front of the left cross-wing is a later two-storey mono-pitched addition. Two storeys.

The front of the house has been arcaded at ground-floor level, probably in the later C18 or C19 and has three round arches, on square brick piers, with keystones supporting an ashlar band. Within the arcade is a four-light and a three-light chamfered, mullion window, and a later entrance. Above the band is a stone shield with the Lowden coat of arms: three hatchets, a chain, and scroll support. This was erected in the C19 having been found on the site. Two, later or altered first-floor windows, of four lights. To the left is the projecting gabled wing with various early window openings, and a mono-pitched addition to the front. To the right is a buttress, the remains of a projecting wing. This has been reduced to a rear bay only and has later window and door openings, and a blocked doorway which was formerly internal. End stacks to the main range.

Rear: four bays. First-floor double-chamfered windows of four, four, three and four lights. Ground-floor windows were similar but have been altered (1980s) and lowered. A porch has been added. Continuous dripmould over ground- and first-floor openings. To the right is the set-back remains of the cross-wing.

Interior: not inspected.

The house was purchased by John Lowden in 1612.
