History
The house was built in 1600 by Robert Drinkwater.[1] It was a timber-framed house which was restored in 1880 by the Chester architect John Douglas for Rowland Egerton-Warburton of Arley Hall, who added "Douglas-like features and character".[2]
Architecture
The house is built on a stone plinth. It has a brick front with terracotta dressings and much timber framing elsewhere. Douglas' restoration is described as being "heavy" and "interesting".[1]
