Worlingham Manor

Worlingham Manor is a former farmhouse dating to the late 16th and early 17th centuries, with subsequent phases of construction and an early 20th-century restoration and enlargement. Originally timber-framed, the house is now largely built of 18th-century colourwashed brick, with a first-floor brick band on part of the facade. The roof is tiled with pantiles. The building is two storeys high with attics, and comprises a single long range with five windows. These windows are mullion and transom casements with two or four lights, and contain 20th-century diamond-leaded glass, set within segmental arches. The doorway is slightly off-centre to the right, with a 19th-century six-panel door set within an architrave and cornice, and a 20th-century wooden porch. Four flat-roofed dormers are visible. The house has one internal stack and a gable stack to the right. Parapet gables are present. The rear facade features an external stack, partly rebuilt with a small crowstepped gable. A rear staircase wing contains a damaged 17th-century mullion and transom window. The interior has been extensively altered and little of the original structure remains visible. One ground floor room has an ovolo-moulded cross-beamed ceiling and cornice, along with a similarly-moulded doorframe.
