The Manor House

The Manor House is a house dating back to the early 16th century, with later additions and substantial restoration and alteration in the 19th century. It is constructed of coursed rubble stone with stone dressings, stone quoining, and gabled stone tiled roofs, featuring moulded stone stacks. The original core of the house was built along an east-west axis, at a right angle to the road, with projecting wings to the north and south, and later additions to the west, producing an irregular T-shaped plan. A further projection on the south (garden) facade may have been a two-story entrance porch with a room above.

The east-facing facade, which fronts the road, shows the gable end of the original house and the flanking two-story, single-bay wings. A round-arched, three-light mullioned window with hollowed spandrels and a flat head with a square label is located on the ground floor of the south bay. This window, dating circa 1520, is stylistically similar to that of the Guildhall. Above this is a 19th-century three-light ogee mullioned window. An original three-light chamfered mullioned window, reworked in the 19th century, is found in the attic beneath the central gable. A surviving hood mould is visible above another mullioned window that has since been lengthened and completely refenestrated. The remaining windows are 20th-century leaded glazing.

The south front has several original late 16th-century two- and three-light mullioned windows, including a wood mullioned window in the southeast attic. A double chamfered mullioned window from an earlier date is present on the west front at ground level. A small, deeply splayed, round-headed window on the north front illuminates the staircase. The window is likely Perpendicular in style, with a small hollow spandrel visible on the western jamb. Inside, a first-floor room on the southwest side of the original house retains two walls of late 16th-century oak panelling with a squared pattern and a gouged frieze.
