Description
Manor House is a house built in the late 18th century or early 19th century. It is constructed of brick and has a Swithland slate roof. The building is three stories tall and has a double pile plan. The facade features three bays with a central entrance that includes a five-panelled door topped by a radial fanlight in an elegant case. Fluted pilasters support a small steep pediment, and there is a keystone above the fanlight arch, along with rusticated work beneath the pediment. The ground floor and outer first-floor windows are wide 16-light sashes with flat arched stuccoed heads. Above the door, there is a narrower 12-light sash window, and the attic storey has 12 and 9-light sashes, all with stuccoed sills. The house has gable end stacks and a low screen wall to the left, which contains a single segmentally arched doorway. At the back, there is a lower wing with an axial stack, a back door with moulded wood architraves, sash windows, and a 3-light casement window with segmentally arched heads in the rear elevation.
