The core of this building dates to around 1600, and it would originally have had thatched roofs. The smaller west portion is a former farmhouse, made from flint and clay with brick trimmings, and probably dates to the 17th century. The main portion is Georgian and brick-built, although the upper parts were destroyed by fire in 1908. There is a brick string course at first floor level and the roof features a dentil eaves cornice. The porch is a recent addition of 20th century date.
