Description
The Manor House is a house dating from the late 17th century, with early 20th-century additions at the rear. It is constructed of red brick with grey brick headers arranged in Flemish bond, topped by an old plain-tile hipped double-depth roof. The house features brick ridge stacks with recessed panels positioned to the left and right of the center. It has a double-depth plan, stands two storeys high with an attic, and presents a seven-window range arranged in a 2:3:2 pattern, with the outer two bays on each side being more widely spaced.
The central entrance consists of a sash door with a four-pane rectangular overlight, framed by a painted ovolo moulded surround and topped with a finely carved shell hood supported by scroll brackets. All openings are fitted with 24-pane unhorned sashes that have architrave surrounds. A flat brick band runs between the ground and first floors, and there is a moulded wood cornice at the eaves. The centre of the roof features a gabled dormer with a three-light casement.
On the left-hand return, the house originally had a five-window range over two storeys and an attic. The ground floor includes 24-pane sashes on the left, right, and centre, with bricked openings to the left and right of the centre. The first floor has 24-pane sashes to the left and right of the centre, with bricked openings on the left, right, and centre. There are also two gabled dormers with three-light casements.
On the right-hand return, the house originally had a four-window range over two storeys and an attic.

The first floor has 24-pane sashes to the right, left, and right of centre, with a bricked opening to the left.
