the ruins of a 4-storey house consisting of a central block flanked by two fortified square blocks on the east side and with another in the centre of the west side. There are some mullioned windows on the top floor on the western side, while there are well-preserved turrets on the southern side and at the north-western corner just below the parapets. The chimney stacks are well preserved. The house was built by Sir Walter Coppinger who surrendered his estates to James 1 in 1616 and had them regranted to him the following day.
