Description
The Old Manor House is a house built in 1762, although it represents a rebuilding of a larger earlier structure. It is constructed of brick and tile, forming an L-shaped plan. The south front, facing the road, is two storeys and an attic, with two windows. It has a steep, half-hipped roof with brick dentil eaves. The west side of the house is built with a header bond brick pattern, while the east side uses a Flemish bond. Rubbed flat arches are present above the ground-floor window openings, and a cement plinth runs along the base of the walls. The windows on the upper floor are early 19th-century casements, while the lower windows are exposed sash windows. A late 19th-century half-glazed door is set within a trellis porch with a gabled slate roof. Above the doorway is a recessed brick panel inscribed "WC 1762". The end walls have attic windows; the east end features an attached stepped brick stack, and the west end has first and ground-floor casements, with a recessed brick panel inscribed "WC 1762" between them. The north wing at the rear is lower, with flint walls, and a mid-19th century brick extension is also present, featuring casement windows.
