Manor House

House. Dating from the 17th century, with an extension and alterations around 1900, the building is constructed of brick walls with a tiled roof. It is primarily a Queen Anne house, with further alterations made in a matching style. The south-west front is of two storeys and an attic, with a 2-window front and a 3-window range, featuring a lower south wing of two storeys and two windows above one. A north wing, dating from around 1900, is of one storey and two windows wide. The roof is hipped on the north side and incorporates three Edwardian dormers, as well as a fully moulded modillion cornice. The brickwork is red and in Flemish bond, with rubbed flat arches and a plinth. The projecting entrance unit is not centrally positioned, and a round-headed staircase window sits immediately to its north. Windows are sash windows in exposed frames. The front door is enclosed by a plain frame with a decorative fanlight, a moulded canopy on brackets, and a six-panelled door (four upper panels glazed). The south wing’s lower part is from the 18th century, with a first-floor addition dating from around 1900, incorporating casement windows and a panelled rear door. The rear features wings of differing dates at the outer sides and smaller attachments to the recessed central part, which retains some original features, including a mullion and transom window. Inside, a staircase from the early 18th century features three panels painted with landscape scenes on the underside. Several rooms contain pine paneling with bolection mouldings, along with some 17th century painted oak paneling. Above the front door is an arched canopy supporting a statue of a saint, dating from around 900.
