Timber framed with colourwashed render and brick facing with a plaintile and pantile roof. Two storeys and single storey with attic. L-shaped plan. Road front: Projecting C19 wing at right and at left of this the stub of the C17 wing with, at left again and lower, the C16 wing. This latter has two 3-light ground floor casements with cambered heads set in C19 walling with two 2-light gabled dormer windows to the attic. Slightly to left of this is a single storey addition which has a doorway at right and a cambered-headed window at left. The C17 portion at right is almost entirely masked by the C19 additions including, to the re-entrant angle, a canted porch which has a 6-panel door, the lower 4 being raised and fielded and the upper 2 glazed. The projecting C19 wing has to its gable end blank ground floor walling and a first floor sash window of 3 x 4 panes with a Tudor hood mould. The left hand flank of this wing has a glazed door at right, a sash window of 3 x 4 panes at left and, to the first floor a blank window at right and a sash window of 3 x 4 panes at left. The C17 portion has a massive chimney stack with a rectangular base. Broaches rise from this to the two octagonal bases of the circular shafts. These have fleurs de lys and lily decoration to the moulded brick of their lower bodies and the caps appear to have been renewed. The whole stack is very similar to that of Catt's Hill Farm at Clopton (q.v). Right hand side: 2-storey flat- roofed projection to left of centre to left of which is a bay window to the ground floor with a hipped roof having 3 central lights and one to the left.
