An imposing stone house dating from c1728 for Robert Ogle. William Etty and William Wakefield have been proposed as candidates for architect, as yet unidentified. Pevsner remarks that the "rusticated quoins, [rusticated] central arched doorway ... and window architraves with heavy triple keystones betray the influence of Seaton Delaval". Grade II* listed.
