Additions including a rear wing were added in the early 19th century. The farmhouse is built in brick with a slate roof and tiled ridge. It has a T-shaped plan, and is in two storeys with attics. The right side is gabled and contains a bay window. On the apex of the gable is a moulded pyramidal finial. In the older part, most of the windows are sashes, and in the newer part they are casements under Gothick heads.^[6]
