Description
Overton Manor is a farmhouse that was originally built around 1711, with a 19th-century wing added to the rear and various alterations made over time. The structure is constructed of red-brown brick in Flemish bond, featuring stone dressings, and has a slate roof with a tile ridge. It stands two storeys high with three bays, including attics and cellars. The facade is symmetrically designed with pilaster strips at the ends and on either side of the entrance, although the outer windows are not aligned centrally within their bays. It has a moulded stone plinth and a plain stone band. The gable ends have brick stacks and parapets capped with stone. The windows are altered three-light near flush timber casements, complete with stone cills and splayed heads, and there is an added bay window on the right side. The central entrance features a stone doorcase with a bolection moulded architrave, a pulvinated frieze, and a cornice, topped by a plain rectangular fanlight above a replaced door.
Inside, there is a later oak staircase with turned balusters, curved and moulded rails, and moulded brackets. The front right room has added panelling, while the front left room contains a wall cupboard with an oak fielded panel door and a moulded frame. The interior also features boxed beams, raised and fielded six-panel doors, and two-panel doors upstairs, along with broad oak floors.
