A heritage assessment of the site was carried out in 2020 in advance of nearby proposed residential development. The study suggested that the farmhouse could date from the 16th century or earlier, based on images of the structure. The phases of constructed comprised the western range, with a possible stair tower dating from early 17th century (or earlier), followed by the construction of a double pile 18th century extension to the east, with a formal 4-window Georgian-style front. The final phase of construction comprised a 19th century extension to the north. (summarised from source, 2)
