Rushbury Manor

Rushbury Manor is a house that dates back to the 16th century. Originally built as a single house, it was later divided into two houses and has now been converted back into one. The exterior features a painted timber frame with painted rendered infill panels, and a stone rubble ground floor at the front, along with a rear plinth. The windows are 20th-century wood casements with lattice leaded glazing. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has plain bargeboards. There are projecting stone rubble end stacks with brick shafts; the left stack is notably large, with ashlar quoins and a cornice at the base of the shafts.

The house has an H-shaped rectangular plan consisting of a five-bay main range with gabled cross wings at each end, and an additional gable at the front. It stands two storeys tall with an attic. The street-facing side has three symmetrical gables, featuring close-studded framing with a middle rail and steeply angled tension braces. The raised attic gables have close-studded tiers below the gable trusses, which include a straight tie beam, vertical struts, and a collar with twin vertical struts. Each main bay has casements on both storeys, and there is a plain boarded front door to the left.

At the rear, the raised gables mirror the front but only have two end gables. The square framing consists of two panels high with a third tier below the gable trusses, similar to the front, and the ground floor features close studding with a middle rail and tension braces. The sides of the building are partly obscured by projecting stacks and single-storey gabled extensions. The north side has close-studded framing with two tension braces at the first-storey level and principals at the attic gable, while the south side is square-framed with a casement window. The interior has not been inspected.
