Description
The Manor House, along with its garden walls and gatepiers, dates from the mid-18th century. It is constructed of coursed, thin millstone grit and features a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and three bays, with a chamfered plinth and raised quoins. The central entrance consists of a 20th-century panelled door set within a Tuscan doorcase that includes pilasters, an entablature, and a triangular pediment. The windows are sashes framed in stone surrounds, complete with projecting, moulded cills and 20th-century slatted shutters. Moulded stone gutters are supported on consoles, and the building has kneelers topped with ball finials and ashlar coping. The end stacks are corniced.
Inside, there is a staircase featuring iron balusters and a modern handrail, along with a moulded arch in the staircase hall and exposed ceiling beams. The garden wall extends from the ends of the house and runs across the front, with ramped side walls that vary in height between approximately 2 and 3 metres. These walls have ashlar coping and hemispherical finials, as well as a board door in a stone surround located in the left wall. The front wall stands about 0.75 metres high, with the top three courses rebuilt using blocks of millstone grit, topped by square-sectioned iron railings. The principal and intermediate shorter standards are adorned with urn finials. The corners of the wall feature square corniced piers with ball finials, flanking the central wrought iron gates.
