Full Description
Manse and outbuildings depicted on historic OS maps. The 1st edition OS map shows a complex of attached buildings, three in a U-pal arrangement with further buildings arranged to form a court to the west. There is an attached garden to the east. It was described in the OS NameBook as a 'good commodious building, and farm offices attached'. By the time of the 2nd edition map, the western buildings had been removed and a north wing had been added to remaining the U-plan buildings. A new manse had been added to the south (NJ56SW0114). Site visit by S Farrell in June 2021.
