Rockholm Stoneleigh The Old Manse

The Old Manse, now divided into three dwellings, was built around 1850. It is constructed of ashlar magnesian limestone with a Welsh slate roof. The building follows a symmetrical, double-depth plan. The front facade is 1:3:1 bays, with projecting gabled end bays. A longer rear range is present. The main entrance is a central 6-panel door with a fanlight, set within a plain wooden doorcase with a cornice. Flanking the door are tripartite windows with projecting stone sills, casements, and glazing bars with stone mullions. The outer bays feature casements with glazing bars within canted, single-storey bay windows. Upper floor windows include a central round-headed sash with a projecting sill and architrave, and flanking sashes with glazing bars under flat arches. The outer bays have round-arched recesses containing two round-headed, unequally-hung 10-pane sashes. The rear range has half-bay projections, each with a door beneath a flat arch; the door on the right also has an overlight. A wooden cornice with gutter brackets rises as open pediments over the ends and the centre of the building. Corniced brick ridge stacks flank the central three bays on both the front and rear ridges.
