Rear and right ranges have integral end stacks.

Interior

Simple interior has large open fireplaces with timber lintels to ground-floor rooms. Plain early C19 dog-leg staircase with ramped handrail, closed string and stick balusters; slate floors and plank doors; copper to stack in right range.

Reasons for Listing
