Lydham Manor

Lydham Manor is a stable block that has been converted into a house, built around 1814-1816, likely by John Hiram Haycock of Shrewsbury for the Reverend Herbert Oakley. The structure is made of coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings, partially rendered at the rear, and features a hipped slate roof. It is designed in a U-shape with a wall enclosing a courtyard at the back. The building stands two storeys high with deep eaves and five chimneys.

On the first floor, there are nine bays, with the end bays slightly projecting and topped with triangular pedimented gables. The central bay also projects slightly and has a cornice, a solid attic that includes a clock and coping, and a wooden cupola with louvred round-arched openings, a tented lead cap, and a weathervane. The first-floor windows are early 19th-century wooden mullioned and transomed designs, while the ground floor features glazing bar sashes that were taken from the former Lydham Manor, which has since been demolished.

A large central round-arched carriageway is blocked and has impost bands, and there is a central door from the former house with six raised and fielded panels. The sandstone ashlar porch, also from the former house, includes two Corinthian columns, a frieze, a cornice, and a radial fanlight above. Lydham Manor was previously known as Oakeley Park or House; the wings and pavilions of the old house were demolished in the 1930s, and the remaining parts were taken down in the 1960s, at which point the name was transferred to the stable block.
