The house is constructed in brick with sandstone dressings and a Welsh slate roof, It has an irregular H-shaped plan, Associated with the hall are two structures listed at Grade II. The sandstone gate piers and wing walls were built probably in 1858 and designed by Thomas Harrison. The hay barn to the southeast of the hall was built in 1858 and was also designed by Harrison. Since 1994 the gardens have been laid out and the pond dug out. Taking inspiration from the grounds at Great Dixter wild flower meadows have been created using plants such as Betonica officinalis.
