Eastbury Manor House

Eastbury Manor House is a Grade I listed building from the 16th century, possibly dating back to before the Dissolution of the Monasteries, although a rainwater head is dated 1572. The house is three storeys tall and constructed of red brick, featuring mullioned windows made of plastered brick. It has an H-plan layout, with the wings on the entrance front being significantly shorter than those at the rear, which form two sides of a courtyard, while the fourth side is a courtyard wall. The wings have gabled ends, and the tall brick gables include lucarne windows on the top floor.

A three-storey porch is located in the right-hand corner of the main front, featuring an early Renaissance pedimented archway. The building is adorned with fine brick copings and finials at the tops of the gables, as well as ornamental chimney stacks. The courtyard originally had two four-storey octagonal brick stair turrets, but now only one remains. The roofs are covered with old tiles. Inside, the house contains interesting features, including stairs in the stair turret, fireplaces, and early 17th-century wall paintings.
