Description

Fifield Manor is a house that dates back to the 12th century, with early 18th-century alterations and a third floor added in the early 19th century. The exterior is finished in stucco, likely over limestone, with rendered stacks and a roof that is not visible. The building is three stories high and features an eight-window range arranged in a 2:4:2 pattern. At the center of the ground floor is a tetrastyle Doric portico. The main entrance has a 19th-century five-panelled door flanked by single-light windows. The ground and first floors have 12-pane sash windows, while the second floor has 9-pane sashes. All windows are surrounded by architrave, and the central four windows on the first floor have bracketed cornices. There is a flat band between the ground and first floors, as well as between the first and second floors, and a cornice with brackets above the central four bays. The right side of the building features a 13th-century window with geometrical tracery of two lights, while the left side has some exposed 12th-century windows.

Inside, there is early 18th-century panelling in the entrance hall and the study, which is located on the right side of the ground floor. An early 19th-century open well staircase leads to the hall and has a cast iron balustrade. Historically, the house was owned by the Bishop of Lincoln and held by Philip de Hogville, Sheriff of Surrey in 1281. It later belonged to Sir Edmund Rede of Burstall, who left it to his grandson in his will dated February 21, 1488/9, but it eventually passed to Leonard Rede of Burstall. The property then transferred by marriage to the Dinhan family and later to the Stampe family in the late 16th century. The third floor was added in the early 19th century, which involved the removal of the original roof and gave the front its current appearance.
