History:

The original farm, which now forms the east wing of the building, was extended in 1834 with the construction of the manor house following a design by Peter F. Robinson. One of the unique features for this design was its impressive and intricate roof structure with its numerous chimneys serving fireplaces in almost every room. Claimed to have 17 different roofs the ornate bargeboards and finishing are very striking. The building remained relatively unchanged until 2004 when a large fire almost gutted the whole building. Restored in line with its Grade II listing, the renovations include the complete reconstruction of the roof along with the services in the building which will give any owner peace of mind for years to come.
