Historic Environment Record entry
Listed building
This early/mid 19th century house retains its character and proportions with many historic features remaining internally and externally. The historic conservatory [1] is of additional interest.
The outbuildings add significance to the farm grouping as a whole, which contributes to the rural setting.
Notes and references
- ↑ There is a fine line between a greenhouse and a conservatory but this structure would appear to be more of a greenhouse than a living area, and may well have been known as an orangery when it was built - Ed
