The National Monuments Service's description
In a demesne on N facing slope of low rising ground with good views to W, N and E with higher ground to S. Nearby ringfort (TS054-041----) 200m to SE. Multiperiod house consisting of a two-storey five-bay house with central shallow breakfront and venetian doorway with large fanlight over the doorway. This block is built onto the front of an earlier two-storey building which itself is built onto the N gable of an earlier two and a half storey single-pile house of possible 17th-century date. In the Civil Survey (1654-6) Henry Laffan is listed as proprietor in 1640 and on the lands are mentioned a 'little old Castle with part of the Walls of a stone house not finished' (Simington 1931, vol.1, 106). The earliest part of these range of buildings may be the remains of the house which was under construction in the Civil Survey.
