Description
Mount Manor Cottage is an outbuilding that has been converted into a house. It dates back to the 17th century, featuring a timber frame with cladding added in the 18th and 19th centuries, along with various alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. The exterior is clad with pebble-dash render, and the upper floor is tile-hung with fish scale tile banding. The roof is covered with plain tiles. The building has three storeys facing the road and two storeys at the rear due to the sloping ground.
The road-facing side has a two-cell timber-frame design with a gable end. Each of the three floors features a twelve-pane sash window, with brick arches above the soffits. There is a central cross-ridge stack and a part-glazed door under a bracketed pent roof on the right side. The rest of the right side is blind, and there is a brick addition at the right end in Flemish bond with some blue headers and one small window.
On the left side, there are two small 20th-century two-light leaded casements at the left end. A further set-back addition has a boarded door with two two-light windows to the left and a three-light window above, all with small panes. There is also a 20th-century flat-roofed bathroom addition further left, which is not of special interest. The gable end of the older range features a part-glazed double door and a twelve-pane sash window above.
Inside, the framing on the two upper floors includes jowelled posts, strait braces, a rail, a wall plate, and cut-through tie-beams. The wall plate and some other members have chamfered arrises with lamb's tongue stops, and on the ground floor, one post has a pyramidal-stopped chamfer.
An 1849 painting depicts the building as a brick structure with a two-storey pitching window recess on the lower floors and an arched opening in the gable.
