According to Craig and Garner (1975) this house dates to the mid-17th century. It is a three-storey U-plan house of eleven bays with two bay advanced ends. In the 18th century a doric doorcase was added while in the late 19th century, c. 1870, an attic storey with high pitched roof, dormer windows and tall chimney stacks was added (ibid.). According to the Bence-Jones (1988, 32) the house dates to the early 18th century, though the roof is a late 19th addition in the French chateau style. Though the house may incorporate a 17th century house, it was substantially altered in the 18th and 19th centuries and there is no obvious visible trace of the 17th century house, save at the rear, where the central, two bay three-storey return with staggered configuration of wall opes, proportions of large expanses of wall to window openings and wall thickness may indicate an earlier phase.

On the N-facing slope of a hill in generally undulating terrain. Rectangular possible enclosure (TS082-026----) situated c. 160m upslope to SE. Monument under tillage. This possible enclosure is marked on the 1st (1843) ed. OS 6-inch map as a rectangular area (dims. c. 27m NE-SW; c. 54m NW-SE) defined by trees. It is not indicated on the 1904-05 ed. The enclosure appears as a rectangular cropmark on aerial photographs (CUCAP July 1970 BDR 71; GSI May 1977 S.785/6). There is no visible trace of the enclosure above ground. It was possibly a landscape feature associated with Barn Demesne. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 21 January 2014 - TS082-026: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CTS082-026----. Just off the edge of a flat hill top, on a N-facing slope, in undulating terrain. A possible enclosure (TS082-025----) is located c. 160m downslope to the NW and another (TS082-027----) c. 60m to the SE. On the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map the monument is depicted as a roughly square enclosure (dims. c. 55m N-S; c. 60m E-W) planted with trees, with a field boundary running N-S up to the E and W sides. On the 2nd (1904-05) ed. the N half of the enclosure has been removed and the remainder appears as a kink in the field boundary. The S half of the enclosure has now been levelled, the bank material pushed up in line with the N-S field boundary, eliminating the kink. The enclosure may have been a landscape feature of Barn Demesne.

In pasture (silage H 0.3m), on an elevated area of an E-facing slope, between mature forestry to N and tertiary road to S. A circular enclosure identified on an aerial photograph (ASIAP (300) 19, 13-09-2002), with another larger enclosure (TS082-099----) located c. 20m to the E. Though the enclosure is, for the most part, not visible at ground level, a surviving gentle scarp (Wth 2.5m; H c. 0.3m) appears to delineate the E quadrant.
