Full Description
Farmstead, still in use, depicted on historic OS maps. The 1st edition shows a long range with attached horsemill on the north side, with a rectangular building set at right angles to the range and a garden enclosure to the south. By the time of the 2nd edition there had been some additions to the range, which had been joined to the other building forming an L-plan. Three new buildings had been added to the south. The smaller two of these later additions have since been removed, as has the horsemill and there have been further alterations to the remaining buildings.
