Description

Annables Manor House is a farmhouse dating from the 16th to 17th century, featuring a timber-frame L-shaped range that has been encased in mauve brick with red brick dressings in the early 20th century. The roof is covered with plain tiles. The house has sash windows and glazing bar casements and stands two storeys high. The main range includes two windows, with one on each side of a central ridge chimney stack, which is partly made of 17th-century red brick. Below the stack, there is a 19th-century half-glazed flush-panel door. The return range has a segmental-headed casement on the ground floor, and to the right of this is a canted porch with an arched door. The house features two gable ends facing the road, with the inner gable enclosing the early range. Inside, this range retains the wide bressumer of a lateral chimney stack.
