The Manor House

The Manor House is a manor house built between 1656 and 1660 for Samuel Disbrowe, who died in 1690. It was altered in the early 19th century. The house is constructed of painted soft red brick and 19th-century gault brick, with a timber frame and plain tile roofs. It is two storeys and attics, with a symmetrical plan featuring two projecting hipped wings and a central range that was raised around 1800. The main entrance was moved to the West wing during this period.

The main facade has a band between floors and a tarred brick plinth. The entrance retains its original cross passage position, featuring a six-panelled door. There is a wooden verandah with a hipped plain tile roof, a 19th-century nine-paned sash window to the left, and two fifteen-paned first-floor sash windows. The wings each have two ground floor and first floor twelve-paned sash windows, nearly flush framed, within gauged brick arches. Two hipped dormer windows are also present.

The interior retains late 17th and 18th-century panelling, doors, and sash windows. Early 19th-century alterations include pilastered decoration in the West entrance hall. The house has been recently converted into three dwellings. Samuel Disbrowe held the position of keeper of the Great Seal of Scotland during the Civil War.
