Description

The Manor House is a mid-18th century brick house located on the west side of Main Street in Mowsley. It has a Welsh slate roof and is two storeys high, built over a cellar. The house features three bays with a doorway on the left, which consists of a six-panelled door set in a moulded wood architrave with panelled rebates, topped by a later porch canopy. The windows are tall 12-light sashes with moulded wood architraves and cambered brick arched heads that have projecting keystones. The upper windows are adorned with aprons beneath them, and there are faint strips of paler brickwork between the windows that resemble flush pilasters. The house also has dentilled eaves, coped gables, and a stack on the right-hand gable.
