upper storey added probably late C19 (work done within living memory).

pointed-arched windows with 6-pane casements and interlaced glazing bars in
stone architraves. First-floor band. 2 gabled dormers above with windows
similar to ground floor. Central stack with recessed arched panels,
rendered. Rear: C20 extension incorporating former single-storey stable or

incorporated into the Ripon drive from Studley Royal Park (qv) to the Ripon
road in the C18.
