ridge stack immediately to right with top rebuilt in C19 brick. Prominent
stepped external end stack to left has dentilled capping and red brick
lean-tos attached to front and rear, latter with fire window. Framing:
square panels and tie beam, fragmentarily exposed to left gable end and
former also to rear where not concealed by long C19 brick lean-to. Original

red brick outbuilding attached to end stack has segmental-headed boarded
