Site visit: 17th August 1982. The gatehouse lies on the south side of house. The early portion has a central carriageway entrance in line with the door of the main house. A range running north from west end is a later, ?C19 addition. Parts of the south wall have been rebuilt and some windows changed in the recent past. Mullioned windows survive on the rear (north) side including the small carved frame noted by the DoE. This frame has foliage decoration. Internally the gatehouse is plain and much altered. One fireplace remains. It is due for conversion.
