Central block, 2 storeys, 3 bays with grand detached Ionic order in Portland
stone, statues above. Ground storey windows, round headed double hung sashed.
Central entrance door with fanlight and radiating bars. Windowless attic
with roundels left and right. Square centre panel. Portland stone balustrade
above. Two storey, one bay wing right and single storey wing further right
projecting at end, Ionic pilasters, dentil cornice. This was Soane's own
country house 1801-11 and thus of great importance. The principal interiors

little altered. The garden front is also of interest. Three bays, with
incised pattend stone pilasters, 'Chinese' balcony screen, and balustraded
parapet.
