The Manor House

House. It may date from the 14th century, with substantial rebuilding in the mid-17th century and further alterations in the mid-18th century and the 20th century. The house is constructed of brick and stone, with Swithland and Welsh slate roofs. A ridge stack and a gable stack with a stone base are visible. It has a chamfered stone plinth and a T-plan layout.

The east front has two and a half storeys, with three bays. A central doorway is now accessed via a 20th-century brick porch with a segmental arched doorway and a panelled door. To the left of the doorway is a 3-light casement window with a cambered arch. To the right is a 20th-century 4-light casement with a concrete lintel. Above these windows, brick replaces stone. To the left is a pair of 2-light casements and to the right a 3-light casement, all with cambered arches. Above these again are two smaller 2-light casements, also with cambered arches. To the right, a lower two-storey, two-bay addition features a gable stack, chamfered stone plinth and stonework to a height of approximately 2.5 metres, above which it is brick. An off-centre doorway leads to a 20th-century glazed door, and to the right is a 3-light casement with a cambered arch. Above this are two 2-light casements with cambered arches.

The rear wing, dating to the 17th century and constructed of stone, has brick coped gables and a brick ridge stack. It is two storeys high, with a basement. The north wall has two arched doorways, believed to be from the 14th century, with steps leading down half below ground level to the basement. Between these doorways is a 20th-century flight of steps rising to 20th-century French windows with a wooden lintel. The west gable wall has a chamfered plinth and a 2-light casement window above, with a wooden lintel, and a similar window above that. The south wall also has a chamfered plinth. Above to the right is a 2-light casement with a wooden lintel, and above that a gabled dormer with a 2-light casement.

In the angle between the rear wing and the front range is an outshut, continuing the plinth. Above it is a 3-light casement with mid-17th century stone mullions. Above the mullioned window, brick replaces stone, and there is a sliding sash window. All windows are 20th-century replacements.

Inside, the lower two-storey range has 18th-century chamfered main beams and joists on the ground floor, and contains a straight staircase to the upper floor, which was originally used for agricultural purposes. The upper floor has an 18th-century king post truss. The outshut has 18th-century joists on the ground floor. The upper floor of the rear wing has two upper cruck trusses with side purlins, also dating to the 18th century. The east-facing range, on the first floor, has a mid-17th century stone fireplace with a moulded chimneypiece.

Attached ancillary ranges, formerly used for agricultural purposes and of no particular architectural interest, run north and east of the house. A datestone inscribed 1397, which may have come from an earlier building on the site, has been reset in a nearby garage, which is of no special architectural interest.
