Description
Manor Cottage is a house dating from the 16th century, with alterations made in the 18th and 19th centuries. It features a substantial timber frame, with some later light framing, and is finished with colourwashed roughcast render. The roof is covered with clay tiles and has a higher ridge level on the left-hand bay. The building has a four-room plan, with the outer bays likely added later to what was originally a two-room structure. It stands two storeys tall.
On the ground floor, there is one 2-light and three 3-light casement windows. The first floor has one 3-light and two 2-light casements, along with a single light in an original 16th-century opening. A 20th-century gabled porch has been added. The house has two mottled brick ridge stacks, with the left-hand stack serving a substantial inglenook fireplace in the left room of the original block. There is also a single-storey outhouse block attached to the right gable end.
