Description
Luddington Manor is a manor house dating from the 16th or 17th century, with a front range added in the 19th century. The building features a timber-frame rear range with brick infill and some rubble, while the front range is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings. It has a tiled roof with brick end stacks and a double-depth plan.
The exterior consists of two storeys plus an attic, with a symmetrical three-window arrangement. There are plat bands over the ground and first floors, along with a top modillioned brick cornice. The entrance features a brick flat arch and an overlight above a half-glazed door with etched glass panels. The ground floor has ashlar bay windows with sills and cornices, while the first floor has windows with sills and wedge lintels, all fitted with 1/1 plate-glass horned sashes. There are signs of a blocked window to the left of the centre. The gabled roof includes three gabled dormers, which are coped with kneelers and have stop-chamfered reveals and 2-light casements. There are external stacks, with the left stack being cruciform.
To the left, there is a lower single-window extension made of painted brick, featuring a recessed rounded angle, a 19th-century French window, and a tall window with a 2-light casement on the first floor. There is also a single-storey lean-to outshut on the right return. The left return shows a stone gable end with an exposed timber-framed gable head and a lower wing made of brick over coursed rubble. The right return features a timber-framed gable on the rear range.
At the rear, there is a mid-19th-century gabled wing with a top frieze and gablet on each side, along with sashed first-floor windows. Inside, the rear range displays exposed timber-framing and broadly chamfered spine beams, with some doorways featuring heavy pegged frames. The land rises to the rear and is terraced, possibly indicating the site of medieval or earlier vineyards.
