The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Hors de l'enceinte autrefois fortifiée, l'ancien manoir seigneurial aujourd'hui disparu, a conservé un vaste enclos entouré de murs, avec trois tours de défense et une porte monumentale du 17e siècle. L'enclos rectangulaire contenait la Grande Perrine, qui était le manoir, et la Petite Perrine qui comprenait une ferme dont il ne reste rien. Les bâtiments qui se trouvent dans la cour fermée par le portail, sont peut-être les restes du manoir. Le double portail se compose d'ouvertures cintrées, en bossages de pierre. Le plus grand est surmonté d'un fronton triangulaire, avec corniche moulurée et panneau rectangulaire en relief au centre du fronton.

Outside the formerly fortified enclosure, the old seigneurial manor now disappeared, preserved a vast enclosure surrounded by walls, with three defensive towers and a monumental gateway of the 17th century. The rectangular enclosure contained the Grande Perrine, which was the manor, and the Petite Perrine which comprised a farm of which nothing remains. The buildings which are found in the courtyard closed by the gateway, are perhaps the remains of the manor. The double gateway is composed of round-arched openings, in dressed stone with bossage. The larger is surmounted by a triangular pediment, with moulded cornice and rectangular panel in relief at the centre of the pediment.
