Description

Campion Cottage Manor House is a building that has been converted into two houses. It likely dates back to the 15th century and was remodeled in the late 17th or early 18th century. The structure is made of limestone rubble with some ashlar quoins and features old plain tile roofs with brick stacks. The layout consists of a two-unit through-passage plan with a cross-wing, and the building stands two storeys high.

The main range, known as the Manor House, has a central door flanked by a 20th-century two-storey canted bay window on the left and an 18th-century sash window on the right, which is beneath a 20th-century timber bay window. To the right, there is a one-storey range. The cross-wing, which is referred to as Campion Cottage, has had its front openings altered.

At the rear of the main range, there is an early 18th-century sash window along with several three-light casements. The return wall of the cross-wing features a two-light casement and a double-boarded plank door with L-hinges. A large clustered stack is located at the junction of the roofs.

Inside, the ground floor of the cross-wing showcases intersecting beams with a tapering section that are moulded with double concave chamfers, forming a coffered ceiling. There are signs that the wing originally extended forward from its current front, although the present four-bay range may extend further at the rear. Mouldings suggest that the range is at least four bays wide and possibly dates back to the 15th century. On the first floor, there are remnants of posts in the walls, and the trusses have been altered. A central shared stack was inserted, likely in the early 18th century. The main range has a similarly moulded beam spanning the through-passage, which may have been reused. It is possible that at least the cross-wing was originally timber framed. The building is shown as Manor House on the Ordnance Survey sheet.
