Description
Rippington Manor is a Grade II* listed building that originally served as a manor farmhouse. It dates back to the 16th century and features a timber-framed hall with double crosswings, which were later encased in local brick during the mid-17th century. The building has plain tile roofs and includes three iron-stone side stacks at the rear of the hall and on the outer walls of the crosswings, topped with later brick shafts.
The northeast facade showcases a two-storey hall range and two-storey crosswings with garrets. A high brick plinth and a band between the floors are consistent across all sections. On the left side of the hall range, there is a slightly projecting bay with a 19th-century casement window featuring glazing bars on the first floor. Below, there is an early 18th-century moulded brick string and a flat gauged brick arch above a ground floor three-light casement window with leaded lights and a transom. To the right of the bay, there is a similar ground floor window and two additional windows without transoms at both floor levels.
A 17th-century oak studded door is located to the right of the centre, flanked by a reduced 18th-century brick side stack. Both gables of the crosswings are similar, each containing windows on both floors. The left-hand gable features a fixed three-light garret window and two three-light casement windows in original openings, complete with wooden lintels and chamfered jambs. The jambs of the later casement windows in the right-hand gable have been slightly altered.
Inside, the hall boasts chamfered ceiling beams and an original stone chimney piece with a four-centred arch and stop-moulded jambs. A similar hearth can be found in the northwest wing, along with 17th-century panelling. The interior also includes two 17th-century battened doors and a 17th-century balustrade on part of the staircase. The southeast wing features early 18th-century panelling, and the first floor displays exposed timber framing.
