Jean Dunn, who kindly sent to us the photographs, writes 'The exterior is most impressive and looks as if it has been recently restored. It has two identical "wings" either side of the tower, each with a "rose" window, as you can see from photo 1, and a very similar "wing" without the "rose" window (photo 2) and then a lower section at the back (photo 3).'
(February 2011)
