Description
Standen Manor is an early 18th-century mansion with later 18th-century extensions and 20th-century remodelling. It has hipped slate roofs. The construction incorporates flint with red brick dressings, and brick with grey headers and red stretchers and dressings. The building is two storeys high and includes a parapet with a moulded brick cornice string, and a band at first floor level.
The east elevation features a recessed central section flanked by square pavilions. Each pavilion has two vertically sliding sash windows with glazing bars within reveals with cambered heads. The first-floor windows have jalousies. The central portion contains two similar windows and two hipped dormers, with a late 19th-century iron decorative balcony supported by two Tuscan columns and two pilasters. The north pavilion is dated 1732. The north elevation returns in a similar style to the east, but incorporates a central three-storey bowed projection between tall chimneys. A band is present at second-floor level and there are three sash windows to the ground and first floors of the bow.
