Manor House

Manor House. Mainly late 17th century, with a portion of the South range dating back to the 15th century. The construction is of rubblestone with dressed limestone used for the openings. There is also some timber framing, rendered on a late 17th century addition. The roofs are covered in Collyweston stone slate and cement tiles, with gabled ends featuring hollow mouldings and hipped roofs covering the late 17th century sections.

The South range has a ridge stack, originally 15th century, with upper courses rebuilt in brick during the 18th and 19th centuries. The North range has a late 17th century ridge stack of dressed stone with an entablature. Additional side stacks are located at the rear of both the North and South ranges. The original plan of the 15th-century house is not known, but the surviving section is incorporated into a single range, with a late 17th century extension to the East and a larger addition to the North. The current house forms an L-shape, with the main entrance in the North range.

The South range is two storeys high and features one original 15th-century window with two trefoil lights in ogee arches within a square head. There are also four 17th-century windows, each with four lights and ovolo mullions, stone surrounds, except for one on the left-hand side which has wooden mullions and a wooden surround. Two two-stage buttresses are present, one featuring reset medieval moulded stonework, and dressed stone quoins. On the North side, one 15th-century window opening has been altered externally. In the late 17th century, a bay was added to this range to the East, using similar materials, although one wall features some rendered timber framing and a hipped stone slate roof. It has a similar four-light window with ovolo mullions.

The house was remodelled in the late 17th century when the North range was added. This two-storey and attic section has three gabled dormers with original leaded light casements. A plain dressed stone band runs above four original window openings, which now contain 20th-century windows. Another band is situated between the storeys. There are three 20th-century casements on either side of the doorway, which includes a canopy and a 20th-century door. An original service door is located to the right.

Inside, on the first floor, there is one four-light ovolo mullion window, now partially obscured by a later 17th-century addition. The rear arches of the windows in the 15th-century section are segmental and chamfered, with deep splayed reveals. A late 17th-century staircase, possibly reset, is found in the North range, featuring pear-shaped balusters.
