Plan: Double depth plan house, with central entrance and principal room to front
left and right, each heated from a gable end stack. Kitchen and former dairy to
rear, with rear stair hall. The wall attached to right, enclosing an area to the
right side of the house, about 15 metres wide and about 25 metres long. The wall is
continued along the front to enclose a garden in front of the house, with a gateway
opposite the front door. The farm building is attached to rear right of the wall
attached at the right side of the house.
Exterior: 2 storeys, symmetrical 3-window front; all windows are 16-pane sashes with

C20 glazed door and two C20 sashes with glazing bars.
The wall attached to right has rubble coping, about 4 metres high; it is ramped down
to the front range where there is a C20 gate with roughly hewn granite piers. This
wall is returned towards the front right of the house. The wall is continued to
enclose the garden at the front of the house, with a flight of granite steps and pair
of rubble piers with small pyramidal caps. The wall is returned to meet the front
left of the house.
The shippon at the rear has 2 doors and 2 windows at ground floor with shutters to
windows and brick segmental arches. Two 2-light 8-pane casements at first floor with
central loading door. The left end has wide double doors with brick segmental arch
