Manor House

Manor House is a house dating from the 17th century, with an early 18th century refronting and some 19th century alterations. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and features a slate roof with a hipped left end, raised stone coped gables with brick kneelers, and yellow brick stacks at the gable, ridge, and wall. The building has an L-plan and is two storeys tall, plus a cellar, with a seven-bay front. The entrance is an off-centre half-glazed door, which is covered by a 19th century gabled timber porch. To the left of the door are two glazing bar sashes, and to the right are four more, all with cambered heads. On the first floor, there are seven similar windows at the eaves. To the right of the main structure is a lower 19th century two-storey, two-bay extension, which has a central flush panelled door, a glazing bar sash to the left under a cambered arch, and two similar windows on the first floor at the eaves. Inside, the house retains an early 18th century dogleg stair, originally with balusters but now boarded in, and dado panels. At the foot of the stair in the hall, there are semi-circular arches, fluted pilasters, and a dentillated cornice, all made of wood. The house is located near Toot Hill motte and bailey, which is the origin of the parish's name.
