The house dates from the early 17th century, and was built by John Werden.[2] There have been some small 19th-century additions. It is built in brick with buff sandstone dressings, it has a Welsh slate roof, and four stone-capped brick chimneys. Its plan is square and the house has three storeys over a basement, with a symmetrical three-bay front. The entrance is approached by ten stone steps.[1] The garden walls and gateway are separately listed at Grade II.[3]

The Rowton family purchased the building, which had fallen into considerable disrepair throughout the late 20th century, in 2006 and carried out an extensive restoration programme.[2] In 2018, they advertised a raffle in which participants could buy tickets for £5 and have the chance of winning the house.[4][5][6]
