Description

The Old Manor House is a house with an east wing dating to the late 15th century. It is a Wealden hall-house which was refaced in the 19th century and restored in the 20th, with a C20 L-wing added to the west. The original building is faced with tiles laid on a red brick plinth. The first floor of the window bays at each end oversails on projecting floor joists and brackets. It has sprocket eaves, and the central portion between the oversailing window bays projects forward on curved braces and a central bracket. The steeply pitched tiled roof has gablets, and a late 16th-century cruciform chimney stack is situated centrally. There are two storeys and four windows. The windows are mullioned, with diamond-shaped or small square leaded panes. The doorcase has a flat hood on brackets. An external stone chimney stack is located at the rear. The C20 L-wing to the west is timber-framed with plastered infill and a tiled roof with a brick chimney stack. It has two storeys and attics, with five windows and two hipped dormers. The casements have leaded lights, and the left gable is tile-hung. Inside the east wing, features include an original hall beam, two original service entrances, and an octagonal moulded crown post. Photographs are held by the National Buildings Record.
