The house, which was later altered and extended, is in red brick with stone dressings, on a plinth, with quoins, and a tile roof, hipped on the west wing. There is an L-shaped plan, consisting of a projecting gabled 17th-century range with two storeys and attics and three bays, and an 18th-century west wing with two storeys and three bays. The earlier range has continuous moulded hood moulds and a dentilled eaves band. In the centre of the north front is a two-storey canted porch, the ground floor open on two banded columns with moulded capitals and a moulded cornice, over which is a bay window with rusticated quoins, and a pierced balcony of cusped circles. The outer bays contain mullioned and transomed windows. On the south front is a bay window with Corinthian pilasters, an entablature, a moulded segmental pediment, and a swagged urn finial.
