The Old Manse

The Old Manse is a house built between 1731 and 1732, with a late 19th-century facade. It features red brick and roughcast render, which was added in 1936, and has a plaintiled roof. The building stands two storeys high with an attic and has a four-window range, showcasing large pane sashes in flush frames. The doorway is asymmetrical and includes paired three-panel doors, with the upper two panels glazed. It is adorned with a portico supported by octagonal timber columns and half-octagonal pilasters, topped with a triangular pediment. There is a plastered band at the first-floor level and a plaster cove eaves cornice, along with two shallow pedimented dormers. The gable ends have parapets with bands at the first floor and eaves levels. One original cross window remains on the former outside rear wall. The original building accounts are still available.
