Standing building recording NS 6751 6556 Analytical assessment was made in October 2005 of the evidence for the evolution of this former country house (NS66NE 23.00). Though on an early site, the present structure evolved from an 18th-century core that substantially survives on its N side (with associated walled garden). The house was successively
extended to the S and W (mid-19th to earlier 20th century), firstly in a castellated Jacobean style and latterly with more Gothic detailing.
