Description

The Manor House is an early 18th-century house constructed of red brick with stone dressings and pantiled roofs. It likely follows a hearth-passage plan and features two storeys with attics, arranged in a four-bay layout of 2:1:1. The entrance is marked by a late 19th-century tripartite door set within a Doric porch. To the left, there are two late 19th-century canted bay windows, while to the right, there is a four-pane sash window with a cambered gauged brick arch and sill. The first floor also has similar four-pane sashes with cambered gauged brick arches and stone sills throughout. The house includes two 20th-century roof dormers, a dentilled brick eaves cornice, end stacks, and an axial stack featuring a band and dentilled cornice, along with plain close verges.
