Details Farmstead still in use. The 1st edition OS map shows a group of buildings arranged to form an essentially E-plan. To the south is an L-shaped house with attached garden enclosure. To the northeast of this group lies another L-shaped building, probably a cottage, with an attached garden enclosure to the west. The layout is largely unchanged on the 2nd edition map. Current maps indicate a number of subsequent extensions and additions.
