Description
The Manse is a 16th to 17th century timber-framed and plastered house located on Bear Street in Nayland with Wissington. It features a jettied upper storey supported by carved brackets and is built on an L-shaped plan with wings extending to the north and west. The house has two storeys and a three-window range, with two and three-light old leaded casements on the upper storey and double-hung sashes with glazing bars on the ground storey. The central entrance consists of a four-panel door topped by a rectangular fanlight, framed by a moulded wood architrave. The upper storey displays guilloche pargetting in panels, and the roof is covered with old tiles.
