Acomb Manor House

Acomb Manor House, now divided into two houses, dates from the late 15th or early 16th century, with later alterations including work at the end of the 19th century. It was restored in 1987. The house is timber-framed and originally had brick casing, though parts are now covered with painted render. It has a pantiled roof. The exterior is two storeys high. Windows are horizontal or vertical sliding sash windows, all with glazing bars. A single bay on the left displays exposed brickwork, with a vertical sash window on the ground floor and a horizontal sash above. To the right are three bays with horizontal sashes; the outer bays on the ground floor have sashes divided into three sections, the central bay has a doorway. A second doorway is present to the right, with a single bay beyond containing vertical sash windows. The doorways are flanked by pilaster doorcases topped with modillion cornices, and have panelled doors. Ridge chimneys are located to the right of the left-hand bay and to the right of the fourth bay. A lower wing, rebuilt in the 20th century, is situated on the left, featuring two boarded garage doorways with segmental arches. The north gable wall has a vertical sash window with glazing bars on the ground floor. The interior was not inspected, but historical records indicate the presence of massive internal timber framing.
