Description

Hatheron Manor is a farmhouse, dated 1703 and 1747. It is constructed of orange-red Flemish bond brick with ashlar dressings, and has a plain tile roof. The building is two storeys with an attic and basement.

The main front has five bays arranged symmetrically. The basement slightly projects and features a cyma moulded band at the top. Flush quoins are present to either corner, continuing above basement level where they gently project and are chamfered. A cyma-moulded string course sits between the ground and first floors, and a similar band lies between the first floor and the parapet. A flight of seven moulded ashlar steps leads to the recessed doorway, with two 20th-century steps completing the ascent. There are 20th-century basement windows on either side of the staircase; the doorway has a moulded ashlar surround, an inscribed lintel bearing the date and initials "17 WA 03," a keystone, and brick and ashlar voussoirs. The ground floor has two sash windows with 3 x 2 19th-century sash panes, wider plate glass panes at the centre. Five similar windows are on the first floor, with the central one having a moulded stone surround and all having flat-arched heads. The band separating the first floor from the parapet displays the date and initials "M M" to the centre, signifying 1747. Gable chimney stacks are present at either end. A 20th-century addition is located at basement level on the right-hand side. The sides feature a band of two bricks, separating the ground from the first floors. A later gabled wing extends from the rear on the left.

Inside, there is a closed-string staircase with five flights. It has a top landing, spiral fluted balusters, square newel posts, a moulded handrail with caps. One ground floor room features bolection moulded panels separated by a chair rail. A fireplace with a dentilled cornice and sloping shoulders is in one corner. Above the panelling is a cyma-moulded cornice and there are two panelled window seats. The first-floor landing is accessed via four doors, each with two raised and fielded panels and H-hinges. Four plank doors lead to the attic floor, one being in-and-out boarded.
