As it stood in 1880

The shape it held in its prime.

Long ashlar-stone country house with an asymmetrical Victorian baronial silhouette: a three-storey main block pierced by tall vertical multi‑pane windows, a variety of steep roofs, multiple tall chimney stacks, small conical and pyramidal-roofed turrets, and a central open belfry/turret with arched openings. The south façade faces a broad lawn with clipped hedging and a low stone balustrade; stone is grey-beige sandstone and the roofline is crenellated and punctuated by towers and chimneys. Complete and intact at its prime.
