Description

Court Lees Manor is a square early 19th century house that stands two storeys high with an attic and features three windows. The front is stuccoed, with the ground floor displaying rustication. Pilasters flank the entrance, and the central window bay projects outward, rising to accommodate a three-light lunette window on the second floor, which is topped with a cornice and parapet. Between the central section and the pilasters is a balustraded parapet that includes two round-headed dormers behind it. The roof is slate, hipped at the front and mansarded on the sides.

The windows are recessed within arching; the ground floor windows are round-headed, while the first-floor windows are segmental-headed, with the central window featuring an architrave supported by consoles. The glazing bars are intact above the ground floor. The porch is solid, flanked by twin Doric pilasters, with a cornice and parapet above. The sides of the house are made of painted brick.

There are rendered brick piers, wooden gate posts, and spear railings on either side of the entrance before the house. The entrance gate from Pean Hill is white-painted timber set between brick end piers that are rendered and rusticated, topped with a stone cornice and an anthemion motif within a semi-circle on four faces.
