South-west front has two cross- wings of one bay and a one-bay centre. The ground floor of the centre and the right-hand wing is covered by a single-storey extension. The left-hand wing has framing exposed in five rows of square panels. It has vertical struts between tie-beam and collar and is half-hipped above. The right-hand wing has timbering which is partly false, and a parapet. Chimneys on inside walls of wings.
