Introduction
The hall is now a care home. The grounds around the hall have been retained in part, though the layout is fragmented with much overlay. Features around the house include a fine balustraded terrace featuring a Cedar of Lebanon (said to be 800 years old). There is also a Victorian shrubbery with Deodar, Sequoias, rectangular medieval fish ponds and the remains of an avenue.
