Manthorpe Post Office

Manthorpe Post Office is a pair of estate cottages, now functioning as houses, built around 1840. The building features coursed squared ironstone with brick dressings and hipped pantile roofs. It has a central brick stack with coped dentillation and three square flues. The structure is two storeys high and has a two-window range of 20th-century two-light casements with brick segmental heads, with larger windows on the ground floor. On either side of the building, there are lean-to porches with concrete tile roofs and pointed arched doors. One door has been altered to form a window with a wall door beside it, and there is an estate postbox next to it. This estate cottage was provided for workers on the Belton estate by the Brownlow family of Belton House.
