The Manor House

The Manor House is a house dating from the mid to late 18th century, with earlier origins. It underwent alterations around 1880, likely by W H Kitchen of Hull, and further modifications occurred in 1978, which included a new door and windows. The building is constructed of brick and features a pantile roof, with a plain tile roof on the bay window. The house has an L-shaped plan, comprising three rooms with an entrance hall to the right of the center, a single-room wing to the rear left, and a rear outshut. The left gable end faces the street.

The house is two storeys high with an attic and has four bays, presenting a symmetrical three-bay entrance front to the right. There are steps leading up to a six-panel door set in a reveal, with a plain 20th-century doorcase that incorporates re-used moulded consoles supporting a frieze and hood. This entrance is flanked by large casements in blocked 19th-century bay window openings, with a casement at the left end. The first floor features sixteen-pane flush sashes beneath stucco flat arches, and there is a stepped and cogged brick eaves cornice.

The right gable has a brick coping and tumbled construction, with a projecting end stack, while an axial stack to the left has a corbelled brick cornice. A pointed-arch window on the right return displays Gothick glazing. The left return, which forms the street front, has a gable end to the right and a rendered plinth. There is a full-height canted bay to the right of center, featuring three ground floor sashes under a stucco flat arch and three late 19th-century first floor leaded casements in a plain wood frame, adorned with ornate stained glass friezes. The roof here is hipped with stepped eaves.

To the left, there are single sixteen-pane ground and first floor flush sashes under stucco flat arches, along with a small twelve-pane attic sliding sash to the right in a stepped gable, which has a moulded brick kneeler at the right angle and a 19th-century moulded brick raking cornice and coping above. The left section has a stepped and dentilled brick eaves cornice, a brick coped and tumbled gable, and a 19th-century axial stack with a corbelled cornice.

Inside, the house features an open well staircase with a closed string, a moulded handrail, and column-on-vase balusters with square knops. There is an arched alcove at the center of the ground floor with moulded brackets and an archivolt, along with fielded-panel doors, some of which are early two-panelled. W H Kitchen, of Gelder and Kitchen in Hull, lived in the house from around 1880 to 1892.
