Description
Manor House is a house dating from the mid 17th century, with alterations and extensions made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is built of red brick in the Fen Artisan Mannerist style and has a pantile roof with two gable stacks. The building has a T-plan layout and features a projecting two-storey porch. The front is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a tall plinth, a first-floor band, and dogtoothed eaves.
The centrally located porch has separately gabled roofs, rusticated quoins, and decorative corbels. The outer doorway is framed with a rusticated surround and has a rounded head beneath a brick pediment, with the bricks on the head moulded to create a zigzag effect. The outer door is glazed, while the inner door is panelled. Above the doorway is a 20th-century two-light casement window. To the right is a three-light 20th-century casement window, and to the left is a similar window. On the first floor, there are two three-light 20th-century casements set between rendered mullions, along with a small fixed light. To the left of the main house is a lower two-bay single-storey service wing, and to the right is a 20th-century extension, with a 19th-century extension at the rear.
