Description
Staward Manor is a house dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, located near bastles. It has been altered and enlarged over time, with a left rear wing added in the 18th century, and the right wing built along with the main block being enlarged and remodeled between 1835 and 1840. The structure is made of rubble and squared stone with ashlar dressings and features slate roofs.
The main block has parallel adjacent rear wings, with the left wing being lower. It is two storeys tall and has two bays on the left and six bays on the right. The left bay of the main block includes a French door, while the main block has 2-light small-paned casements, some of which are blocked, set in raised and chamfered surrounds. The second bay features a window under a head with an open scrolled pediment that holds a fleur-de-lys. In the left section, there are 3-light chamfered stone-mullioned casements with diamond leading, also under scrolled open pediments with a central rose on the first floor.
There is a blocked bastle door between the left and right sections, which has a flattened Tudor-arched lintel and a panel inscribed with "G & C B, 1668" (for George and Cecilia Bacon). Below this, there is a blocked door and a small window. The right return of the building has 2-light mullioned windows, some of which have blocked lights. The right rear wing contains similar windows, while the left rear wing features a door in a Gibbs surround and windows with flat stone mullions in raised surrounds. The rear of the main block has a door on the left and a 12-pane sash window above it, which is set under a reset scrolled pediment. There are stacks at the gable ends and on the ridge, with five stacks featuring paired diagonal shafts.
Inside, the bastle part has hearth corbels on the east wall, and there is another concealed bastle within the main block that retains a thick rear wall.
