The south-west elevation, probably from the 1930s

The stone gable end is believed to date from around 1620.

From a sales catalogue of 1932: the north-east elevation

It is believed that this replaced a stone gable end when the house was extensively remodelled around 1720.

This photograph provide a good view of the gardens to the south of the house.  Note the extent of the kitchen garden in what is now (2010) part of the field.

The south-west elevation in May 2006

This reflects renovation done around 2000

The north-east elevation.

The sash windows were installed during the renovation around 2000. They are modelled on windows of the early 18th century when sash windows were introduced. They were much coarser then than they became in the late Georgian period
