Editorial reading
The record describes a main block with two pavilions and a return wing, and singles out a room in the south pavilion whose beams are painted with scenes of tropical hunting and a frieze of military trophies; that painted decoration was listed in 1995. Nothing is said of the grounds. The clipped hedges before the house are documented only by the photograph.
