Central three storeyed section in diaper brickwork is dated 1525 in black brick on east gable wall; gable stepped, and also here a small pointed brick window. Tall quadruple chimney. To west, what may be a porch tower, much altered, at junction with taller section (though still three storeyed) of about 1600 with pinnacled dormer bearing sundial instead of window; also in diaper brickwork. This same sort of brickwork appears in base of east wing running south from central portion, but it has been very much altered. Windows in west section central storey 'modernised' 1700.

Former owner, notes a barrel vaulted chamber in an outbuilding which she suggests as an ice house, She states hall dates from 1420 but this may be a mistake for 1525.
