When it was built the gatehouse led into a courtyard with a hall and ancillary buildings but today their exact position is uncertain. The gatehouse is three storeys high with a rib-vaulted passageway on the ground floor. This is flanked by an Armoury, which has a collection of Cromwellian armour and a Guard Room with 17th century furniture and paintings including a portrait of Queen Henrietta Maria.
