Description
Gosterwood Manor is a hall house with a core dating back to the 15th century, which was extended in the 16th and 17th centuries and restored in the 20th century. The building features exposed timber framing with brick infill on the ground floor and the central part of the first floor, while the right-hand wing and parts of the left-hand wing are covered in cement render over close studding. The roof is made of Horsham slabs and is hipped, with a half-hipped section on the right. Originally L-shaped, the house has been altered to an H-shape with shallow wings projecting at the front.
The manor has two storeys and includes a corbelled stack to the left of the center, a front stack to the right, and additional stacks on the right wing and ridge to the left. The left-hand wing contains an attic with three diamond-pane, diamond-mullioned windows, while the first and ground floors feature two small windows, three large diamond-pane leaded casement windows in the center of the first floor beneath deep eaves, and one smaller window. The ground floor has two windows and an oriel window to the right, with a first-floor oriel window supported on brackets. A ribbed door is located in a Gothic-arched surround to the right of the center.
On the left-hand return front, the first floor is tile hung, with the tile hanging canted out over the ground floor. The building has close stud framing on a Bargate stone plinth, and the rear wing jetties out on braces. At the rear, there is a cross passage door in a chamfered surround to the left of the center and a square oriel window on a central bracket on the return wall of the left-hand wing.
