Description
Sherfield Manor House is an 18th-century house that was remodeled in the late 19th century using materials from the early 18th-century Sherfield House. The building is constructed of brick and has an old plain tile roof. It has a two-storey, three-bay, double pile layout, with each end featuring a projecting wing that is one bay wide.
The front of the house includes a central timber porch that projects outward and features a six-panel top-lit door set within a doorcase with pilasters and an overhanging pediment. Above the door is an 18th-century twelve-pane sash window. Each bay on the ground floor has a double twelve-pane sash window, which are reused from the 18th century and set under rubbed brick arches. The first floor has similar sash windows without arches, and all the sashes have thick glazing bars.
The taller central section of the house has boxed eaves and end stacks. The projecting wings, which extend half a bay, feature a moulded cornice and hipped roofs. Originally, these wings were separate but are now linked on the inner side by a lead flat roof, with a tiled sloping front face. On the outer side, there is a stack and a flat-roofed dormer. The house was originally misidentified as an unusual 18th-century structure and was given a higher grade when it was listed.
