Description
Hoptons Manor is a house dating from the 15th century, clad around 1698, with an extension added in 1938. It features a timber frame covered with painted brick, flint, and tile hanging, topped by a plain tiled roof. The building has an end jettied hall house plan, with a southward extension from the 15th century. It stands two storeys high with a hipped roof and a returned hipped wing to the right, along with stacks at the center and rear right. The left side has two wooden casements on each floor, while the right side has a central gabled porch, one wooden casement on the first floor, and two on the ground floor, along with a boarded door in the outshot.
Inside, the frame is visible, showcasing a jetty, arched braces, and a plinth within the outshot on the main elevation. The roof was raised and altered around 1800, and there is a later framed addition, possibly with a crown post roof, which has been subsequently altered. The interior features large inglenook fireplaces, and the wall of the 1938 extension includes 17th-century flintwork, with a stack dated 1698. The manor is historically significant as it was a manorial site belonging to St. Radegund's Abbey and was the seat of the locally notable Hopton family.
