Varied roofs, gabled, mansard and hipped, slated and leaded, with red brick stacks having short octagonal linked shafts. Mostly two and two and a half storeys, built in a single range with service end to the east. The early C17 part lies towards the south west end and is of two storeys with a modillion eaves cornice. Central two storey porch with hipped roof of c1910 to the original cross-passage. Flanking the porch are four c1910 hung sashes, shuttered, with twelve panes each. The doorway to the garden has a rusticated surround. Including a ha-ha in the garden. Interior: There is much re-used early C17 run-through panelling incorporated in the new. Dudley Newman built the house for his cousins, the Townley family, who have been owners of Fulbourn Manor since C18. R.C.H.M: record card Burke's and Savills: Guide to Country Houses (p.15)
