The Manor House

The Manor House is a farmhouse that has been converted into a house. It dates back to the 15th century, with a 17th-century wing on the left side and later additions, having undergone significant restoration in the 20th century. The building features a painted timber frame with rendered infill panels set on a rubble plinth, along with brick additions. It has plain-tile roofs and two projecting stone eaves stacks, as well as three later brick ridge chimneys, all with restored profiled brick shafts. The overall shape of the building is an elongated H, consisting of a long main range with cross wings at each end.

The exterior is two storeys high. The west front showcases a long restored range of close-studded framing, with three 3-light casement windows flanking a central 2-light casement above a 18th-century panelled pilastered doorcase topped with a moulded pediment. There are advanced gabled bays at each end, featuring restored close studding and jettied tie beams, with a single 3-light casement window on each storey.

On the right side, the gable end has been rebuilt in brick and is partly obscured by the adjoining Courtyard Cottage. The left side features a projecting stone chimney with a tall brick stack, along with restored full-height close-studded framing that includes a girding beam and an upper storey middle rail.

At the rear, there are advanced central paired gables and gabled bays at each end, all with heavily restored close-studded framing and restored casements with leaded lights. The right-hand gable truss has square framing that is four panels high, a cambered tie beam with vertical struts, and a collar.

Inside, the house contains a 3-bay cruck hall-house, a Jacobean staircase, and a fine early cast-iron grate located in the ground-floor room to the right of the entrance.
