An early 17th century two storey brick house, perhaps with an earlier core, with a black glazed pantile roof and 18th century refacing. At the rear are two two storey wings, the one to the right of 17th century origin, the other late 19th century. The hall stood empty for a number of years, but was sympathetically restored in the 1990s.

April 1980. Field Observation.
Two-storey building of the size of a normal house rather than a hall. North façade in brick with string course between the stories. Seven bays, with the third and sixth bays from the west very narrow, a feature (S3) dates to 1700 to 1710. On the ground floor these narrow bays are doors, on the upper their windows are blocked up, one with a fire insurance plaque on the blocking (window tax?).
East gable wall of flint has small blocked windows of 17th century type. Two rear extensions, both late.
Apparently empty at time of visit.
See record card (S2). Also see published summary (S3) / (S4) for further details.
