Description
A three storey palladian mansion, south-east facing, of bath stone with a balustraded parapet, latterly cream-washed. This was built in 1777, incorporating an earlier house.

Dismantled in 1930, the ruins of the building were cleared in 1987, leaving only the platform upon which it stood.
