Details House, still in residential use, originally built in circa 1650, but 18th century in its present form with a lower extension to the north-east. It is a two-storey, three-bay, rectangular-plan harled house with piended window heads breaking eaves and deep-set openings, with a later small outshot at the rear. There is six- and eight-pane glazing patterns in replacement timber sash and case and top-opening windows. The graded grey slate roof has a stone ridge, coped harled stacks with evidence of thackstanes and some cans, and broad ashlar-coped skews. The symmetrical south-east entrance elevation has a two-leaf panelled timber door with a four-part fanlight at the centre and a tiny window above. The flanking bays have windows at each floor, with those to the first floor breaking the eaves. There is a single first floor window to the centre at the rear. The simple interior has low ceilings, panelled doors and shutters, timber fire surrounds and a barhole and bar behind the door.
