Description

Hormead Bury is a manor house that dates from the 17th century or earlier, with a northern wing added around 1812 for Edward Stables and an eastern range renovated in the late 19th century. The building features a timber frame that is roughcast, while the older western range is faced with a parapet. The northern wing is constructed of brick and has a new entrance front with a parapet surrounding it. The roofs are steeply pitched and now covered with slate, with a hipped slate roof behind the parapet of the northern wing.

The house is T-shaped and consists of two storeys, with the oldest part facing west, featuring a two-cell internal chimney block with axial beams. The service wing, which runs parallel to the east, was renovated in the late 19th century and includes leaded casement windows. The taller northern wing has two cells, with rear-wall chimneys and a central entrance hall and staircase hall. The northern front has three long, symmetrical windows with a central door, all of which are sash windows with glazing bars. There is a late 19th-century bay window on the western end and a large ground floor bay at the eastern end.

The western front of the lower old range has two windows on each floor and a cornice with a parapet above. It features a tall round-headed sash window on the ground floor, with the northern window replaced by a canted late 19th-century bay, and square proportioned sash windows on the first floor.
