Description

The Manor House and adjoining courtyard wall are located on Shelton Main Street and date from the late 18th century and mid 19th century. The building is constructed of brick and features steep pitched slate roofs, a brick plinth, a first floor band, and cogged eaves. It has two storeys plus garrets and is designed in an L-plan with five bays. The windows are primarily mid 19th century sashes, with those on the front ground floor having segmental rubbed brick heads. The front of the house includes a central doorway with a keystoned round head and fanlight, flanked by two sashes, and above this are five additional sashes.

On the northeast side, there is a lower two-storey service building and a rear wing with a lean-to addition and stair turret. To the left, there are two Yorkshire sashes with segmental heads, followed by a casement and a sash. Above these, there are two casements, and above again, two more casements. The rear elevation features a doorway with a round head to the right, with a casement above it. The return angle has a sash and, to the right, a door and a Yorkshire sash, both with segmental heads, and above to the left, there is another sash.

The adjoining L-plan brick courtyard wall has brick coping and a door with a segmental head. In the corner of the courtyard, there is a parapeted toilet block with a round-headed door.
