Full description

June 1995. Building Survey.
A Great House and farm complex. The Hall includes a late medieval/16th century ceiling (from elsewhere?), but the remainder of the building is an early 17th century end-stack house. Most of the detail is obscured by decorations of early 19th century date. There have been 18th century additions and Regency façade. The farm consists of a very ornate brick barn of about 1780 with 19th century wings.
