Description
A red brick building with stone dressing erected in 1862. A good example of its period and almost completely unaltered. It comprises a central block with gabled wings at the east and west ends, with stopped gables. The windows are mainly original iron latticed casements. The west wing has a large "Gothic" traceried window and a clock above it inscribed V.R. with the dates 1837 and 1887. Two gabled porches project on the front. The roof is tiled, with three octagonal shafted chimney stacks. On the east wing there is a central dormer window with stopped gable and on the west wing, a small bellcote. <1>
