As it stood in 1480

The shape it held in its prime.

A compact, three-storey late-medieval brick manor with multiple steep gables and a long horizontal frontage; red-brown brick walls and red clay tiled roofs punctured by tall, square brick chimney stacks. Large vertical mullioned windows with leaded diamond panes occupy the main elevations; smaller gabled dormer windows sit in the roof. The main entrance is a low-headed doorway set in the central run of the house. The building stands within parkland near Ashdown Forest.
