Il se compose d'un corps de logis avec une tourelle d'escalier en avant. Au premier étage se trouve la chambre de l'abbé qui a conservé son lambris 18e, et une grande cheminée. La cuisine date du 17e ou 18e siècle.

The church and buildings are the remains of a priory depending on the abbey of Saint-Amand de Coly. This presbytery does not seem to date back further than the end of the 15th century. It consists of a main dwelling with a staircase turret to the front. On the first floor is the abbot's chamber which has retained its 18th-century panelling, and a large fireplace. The kitchen dates from the 17th or 18th century.
