August 2010: External inspection finds the fine building is now heavily overgrown. Whilst the stone walls are generally sound, they are overgrown and encroached upon by trees. To the west the steps are collapsing. The decorative iron grills are in good condition.

20 May 2014: External inspection finds the building remains in much the same condition as seen previously.

29 April 2019: External inspection finds no significant change from previous visit. Structure is more overgrown but there is little apparent change to structure and ironwork.
