The Manor House and Attached Front Wall Piers and Railings

The Manor House is a farmhouse, later adapted for residential use, dating from the early to mid-17th century, with extensions added in the late 17th and 19th centuries. The construction utilizes coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings, and incorporates some timber framing; the roofs are finished with old plain tiles and brick stacks. The building has a T-plan layout, expanded over time. The front facade, three windows wide, features a chamfered plinth. The entrance is located on the left, with a six-panel door set within an ovolo-moulded stone surround, and a late 17th-century moulded canopy supported by scroll brackets. Above are three-light stone mullioned windows with ovolo mouldings. The right bay likely dates to the late 17th century. The roof has a stack to the right gable and three hipped dormers with leaded roofs. The left gable wall contains additional windows, one and two lights in height, with straight hood moulds. The gable itself is close-studded timber framing, featuring a carved bargeboard and an apex pendant. All windows have 19th-century leaded lights. The rear of the added bay contains sash windows. The right side of the rear range retains original single-light windows and a large 19th-century rectangular bay window, along with a projecting chimney with diagonal brick shafts in the angle. A rear wing has undergone significant 19th-century extensions, and a parallel range was built to the left, in a matching style. The rear gable wall of this range incorporates two original 17th-century single-light windows. Internally, the house features an ovolo-moulded beam, a large restored Tudor-arched stone fireplace, a late 17th/early 18th-century open-well staircase with a closed string and bobbin-turned balusters, and a clasped-purlin roof with two rows of straight windbraces. Attached to the front is a wall with a moulded coping, supported by a series of ashlar piers with moulded caps, connected by 19th-century railings. This wall extends from the left side of the front and runs across the frontage. The property may originally have been the manor house.
