The gentry house was the seat of the Griffiths family, and probably erected by John Griffiths, gentleman, appearing in the Grand Jury List for c.1616. Later occupied by the Vaughan family.

C18-C19 extension in angle with NE wing at rear. Entrance in framed gabled 2-storey porch extended forward against the NE wing, close studded and open at front, and having lateral seats. Studded door with hollow chamfered cover beads, restored. NE wing has double jettied first floor and gable, all in small squared framing with curved braces. Jetty beams carved with simple strapwork, that to porch with date, now largely eroded. Ground floor of wing has C20 canted bay. Porch chamber has external frame on carved brackets. Perforated C19 bargeboards and finials.
