Description

This manor house dates from the 17th century, with additions around 1860. It is constructed of coursed ironstone and limestone rubble, with ironstone and limestone dressings, and has plaintile roofs with lead flashings. The roofline features three stone-coped gables with finials, and a single 19th-century stone-coped gable stack to the east. It has two large, 17th-century projecting wall stacks on the west wall, featuring quoins and stepped ashlar coping towards the top. The house is arranged in a T-plan, with a 19th-century projecting wing to the north, an east projecting wing with a 17th-century west side, and a south projecting wing.

The north front is of two storeys and two bays, with a three-storey projecting wing to the west. The west wing has first and second floor moulded cornices and quoins. There are ground-floor margin-light plain sash windows, with similar windows above, set side by side. A single margin-light plain sash is set in the gable, with a small slit opening above. A doorway is located in the west corner of the east wing and contains a plain stone surround and a six-panel door. There is a single window to the east, with two windows above, all with margin-light plain sashes. A central dormer is positioned above, featuring a two-light casement and a steep gable with bargeboards. A similar dormer is found on the west return, above the large 17th-century stacks, with a cross-mullion window. A lower four-light stone mullion window is also present, with a moulded cornice. The 17th-century south gable has a four-light mullion window with a moulded cornice and a small slit opening above, with a late 19th-century extension below.
