The Manor House

The Manor House, dating to the late 16th century and restored in the mid-20th century, is a timber-frame building with rendered infill above a rubble ground floor, featuring quoins and a hipped tile roof. The house follows a U-plan, originally comprising a front range that served as a hall, with a carriage entry through it, and two wings: a south wing of six bays and a north wing of two bays. A stack on the side wall of the north wing is notable for its three diamond brick shafts, while another stack is situated at the junction of the south wing and front range. The building has two storeys, a coved cornice, and three windows, with oriels featuring lean-to stone tile roofs. The ground floor has four windows, including a window on the left side with five lights and stone mullions. A recessed portion in the centre indicates the former carriage entry, now containing a 20th-century entrance to Number 6. The entrance to Number 4 is located to the right. The timber framing consists of three square panels in height, with a projecting moulded bressummer to the first floor, and elaborate herringbone bracing within the panels. Internally, moulded stone fireplaces are found in the main stacks. The site was formerly occupied by The Seyne House, a property of Evesham Abbey. The building had fallen into disrepair and was restored in the 1940s by a group of local individuals.
