Description

The Manor House is a house dating from the 16th century, with alterations from the 18th century and a late 20th-century restoration. It is timber-framed, with sections of the frame exposed and plastered infill, and the first floor clad in tiles. The roof is tiled, with three flat-roofed leaded dormers and stacks positioned to the left, centre, and projecting at the right end of the building. The house has a plinth and a continuous jetty supported by brackets, topped with a parapet. The roof is half-hipped to the right. The first floor has four irregularly sized and placed leaded wooden and metal casement windows, including a central right-hand window with a moulded cornice. On the ground floor are four mullioned and transomed three-light windows (inserted in the 20th century) and a four-centred-arched plank and stud doorway in the centre left, also a 20th-century addition. A red brick wall, approximately 10 yards long, 3½ feet high, and ramped up to the house, projects at the left end of the property.
