Description
This is a manor house dating back to the early 19th century, with a rear wing likely built in the late 16th or early 17th century. The rear wing is partly timber-framed, while the main range is constructed from coursed dressed sandstone with a Welsh slate roof and renewed brick stacks. The building has a roughly L-shaped layout, consisting of a four-bay main range and a shorter wing projecting from the rear right side.
The main range features an ashlar plinth and large quoins. A panelled door is located in the second bay, set within a quoined surround with a shaped keystone cut into the lintel. There are three ground-floor windows with projecting sills and lintels designed to look like voussoirs, now fitted with 20th-century casements. Four similar first-floor windows are also present, with the second-floor window narrower. Brick end stacks and a ridge stack sit between bays three and four. The rear wing has brick infill for the upper walling and a steeply-pitched roof.
Inside the rear wing, two heavy transverse beams remain in the ground-floor room. The upper rooms display post-and-truss timber framing, with exposed wall posts, some original stud infill, braces, and wallplates. The loft retains the original roof structure, including two king-post trusses with braces to the ridge.
