More House

More House is a house that is said to have originally been a hunting lodge and now serves as a presbytery for the Catholic Church of St Thomas of Canterbury. It dates from the 16th century or early 17th century, with alterations made around 1866. The building is constructed of painted brick with a timber-framed cross wing featuring square framing and a tile-hung gable on the kitchen wing. It has a tile roof and a brick stack.

The two-storey range includes a cross wing with a full-height hall on the left and a single-storey kitchen wing at the left end. Most windows are casements with leaded glazing, including two small lights on the kitchen wing. The hall features a wooden-mullioned window with four lights, two transoms, and decorative leaded glazing. There is a bow window with a lean-to roof on the cross wing, as well as a first-floor and attic window above, and small end windows. The entrance on the right return of the wing has a canopy and a panelled door. The kitchen wing has a gable-end stack and a cross-axial stack.

The rear of the house is similar, with the hall featuring a bay window under a catslide roof with four lights and a transom, and a light on the right return. The left return has a lean-to outshut, two small lights, and a gabled canopy at the entrance.

Inside, the house has chamfered beams and exposed joists. The entrance hall includes dado panelling, and the doors have 17th-century relief panels depicting figures. The hall has a large fireplace with attached wood columns and 17th-century panels, as well as turned balusters leading to a low gallery above, known as the minstrel's gallery. The doorcases are richly moulded, and there is a spiral staircase at the rear of the cross wing. In the 19th century, the house was owned by Colonel Thorneycroft of Tettenhall Towers, who installed 17th-century reliefs and other features.
