Description
Old Manor House is a farmhouse that has been converted into a house, dating from the late 17th century. It underwent changes in the late 18th century, including the addition of new windows, and further alterations were made in the late 19th and mid-20th centuries. The building is constructed of brick, which is rendered and colourwashed, with a plain tile roof added in the 20th century. It features a brick plinth and bands at the first and second floors on the front, as well as shouldered coped gables. The house has two side wall stacks and a single ridge stack, and it is two storeys high with garrets, arranged in an L-plan with three bays.
The front facade includes a central 20th-century Tudor style timber framed porch with a brick plinth and leaded glazing, flanked by single sash windows with shutters. Above the porch, there are two sashes to the left, and to the left again, there are early 20th-century gabled and lean-to additions with a single sash on each floor. The rear of the house has a gabled wing to the right, along with lean-to and single-storey additions, also comprising three bays. The left side features a French window and a casement to its right, with three additional casements further right. Above, there is a sash window to the left and two casements to the right, with a gable to the right that has a casement with a segmental head.
On the east side, there are two doors with overlights to the left, and the fenestration is regular with sashes and a single garret casement. Inside, there is a late 17th-century dogleg stair with landings spanning three floors, featuring vase and stem balusters, an intersecting handrail and string, square newels, and acorn drops. A secondary winder stair from the late 18th century is also present. The drawing room boasts 18th-century fielded panelling with a chair rail and moulded cornice, along with an early 19th-century panelled fireplace that has a hob grate, flanked on the right by a round-headed cupboard. The house retains an 18th-century purlin roof, eight 18th-century two-panel doors, and four 18th-century plank doors.
