Description

The Manor House is a house dating from the mid to late 17th century, which was refronted and extended to the right around 1820. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble, featuring a roughcast front and rendered side walls, topped with a gabled stone slate roof. The house has a 17th-century stone ridge stack on the left wing and an early 19th-century brick ridge stack on the right. It has an L-shaped plan, with an early 19th-century block added to the front right of the original two-unit 17th-century range. The building is two storeys high and has a two-window range front that includes two canted bays with 8-pane sash windows, along with a 19th-century outshut to the left. At the rear, there are double-leaf doors from the 19th century. The right side wall of the 17th-century range features a timber lintel over a 17th-century wood cross window with leaded lights, as well as a keyed flat stone arch above an 8-pane sash window. Inside, the 17th-century range has chamfered beams and a four-bay butt-purlin roof, along with an early 19th-century dog-leg staircase that has winders and stick balusters.
