N. of the foregoing, was built at two periods. The S.W. wing, facing the road, has a symmetrical three-bay front and is of the early 18th century; at the rear, at right angles to the S.W. wing, a lower wing dates from about 50 years later. Some sashed windows retain original glass. A 19th-century wrought-iron verandah has recently been removed from the S.W. front.’
