As described in the brochure, the ground or 'entrance' floor contained two sitting rooms, a kitchen, a larder, a maid's bedroom or guest room, a WC and a boxroom. The upper floor contained three bedrooms, a bath room, a WC and a guest's bedroom. The outbuildings comprised stores for coal and wood, and a fowl house.
