As it stood in 1802
The shape it held in its prime.
Near-symmetrical grey stone façade dominated by two large cylindrical towers flanking a central gatehouse; each tower has a steep conical slate roof topped by a small finial flag, pierced by narrow vertical slit windows and occasional rectangular openings. A round-arched carriage passage cuts through the centre at ground level, above which a single mullioned window and several chimneys rise. Low stone curtains connect the towers and a cobbled approach lined with clipped hedges and mature trees leads to the entrance.
