Welbourn Manor

Welbourn Manor is a small country house with a complex history, dating back to the early 14th century and undergoing significant alterations in the 15th, 17th, and a major restoration in 1904. It is constructed of coursed and dressed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings, and has plain tile roofs with ashlar coped gables and finials, along with a single ridge stack and three gabled moulded ashlar stacks. The building is arranged in an "H" plan, composed of a central hall flanked by cross wings.

The east front is characterized by an off-centre projecting porch featuring a recessed, moulded 4-centred arched doorway with a modern glazed door. Above the doorway is a coat of arms inscribed '1904', accompanied by a drip mould and moulded band, and topped with coped battlements. A single 4-light recessed chamfered mullion window sits above the arms. To the left is a small 20th-century timber and stone extension, while below to the right is a recessed and chamfered transom window, followed by a large 4-light transom and mullion hall window. The projecting cross wings on either side feature recessed and chamfered cross mullion windows of varying sizes, some with drip moulds.

The south front displays a large external stack supported by reused medieval corbel heads. A series of recessed and chamfered mullion windows are present, including a 2-light, a 5-light and a 3-light window. A single-story extension with a hipped roof and mullion windows is attached to the south-east corner, connected by a coped brick wall with a rubble stone archway and wrought iron gate to the east. The west front displays an irregular arrangement of 8 bays and 5 gables, with two doorways and various 20th-century cross mullion windows. A 5-bay, 2-story extension of approximately 1965, considered to be of no particular architectural interest, is located to the north-east.

Internally, a pointed archway from the hall to the solar exhibits single shafts and a heavily moulded early 14th-century arch. The right cross wing contains a fine 15th-century moulded 4-centred arched fireplace. The remaining interior features Elizabethan Revival fireplaces, plaster ceilings, and panelling, all dating from the 1904 restoration. The roof structure is predominantly 17th century, employing a simple collar beam construction with stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops.
