Description
Manor House, dating to the 16th century with a 17th-century addition and 19th and 20th-century alterations, is located on Goose Lane in Upper Quinton. The timber-frame structure has plastered infill on an ashlar and rubble plinth, with sections of brick and pebbledash. The steeply pitched, graduated stone slate roof is punctuated by stone end stacks, one with three shafts, and a brick cross-axial stack to the left. The building comprises a two-unit plan with a lower, single-unit cross-wing addition to the left.
The right part of the house is two storeys plus an attic, featuring a two-window range. A 20th-century pentice shelters the ground floor, which includes a two-light mullioned window and a four-light casement. The first floor has a two-light window and a five-light casement. Two gabled dormers with four-light casements light the attic. All casements have leaded glazing. The wing to the left has a recessed entrance within an early 20th-century gabled porch with a plank inner door. To the right of the porch is a two-light leaded casement window, and a smaller window to the first floor. A gabled, pebbledash wing at the left end features a segmental-headed window with a cross-casement on each floor. The rear of the right part mirrors the front, with a three-light casement window to the ground floor and a small, blocked two-light window to the right end, accompanied by a two-light window on the first floor. Tension braces are visible at the left end and to the left of the two-light windows. The left return displays similar windows and a canted bay window with leaded glazing.
The interior includes a splat baluster staircase. The cross-wing has a tile roof with stone slate to the end, displaying an ashlar cross-axial stack. Windows here are casements, some with leaded glazing and others with small panes; ground floor windows are segmental-headed.
