Description
Manor Cottages is a 16th-century timber-framed and plastered house that has been converted into three tenements and is now faced in roughcast. The building features double jettied crosswings at both the north-east and south-west ends, along with a jettied gable in the center. It stands two storeys high with attics and has a four-window range arranged as 1:2:1. The crosswings are adorned with oriel bay windows that have mullions and transoms, fitted with leaded lights. The central section contains double-hung sash windows with glazing bars. There are two six-panel doors and one early 20th-century boarded door with fillets. The central doorway is topped with a pediment. The roof is tiled and includes a three-shafted chimney stack that has been rebuilt, set on a rectangular base. The right-hand tenement features a well-preserved panelled room with the Cavendish coat of arms on the ceiling, along with an old iron-studded door. All the listed buildings in The Green form a group.
