The Manor House

The Manor House is a house dating back to the 17th century, with a later 17th-century addition to the right. Internal alterations were made in the early 18th century, the roof was raised, and the house was extended to the rear in the 19th century, with 20th-century alterations following. The house is constructed from sandstone rubble, rendered, and has a pantiled roof with stone stacks, now set on a slope. The right wing has a double Roman tiled lower roof with a brick gable stack.

The main part of the house is two storeys high with two windows. The first floor has two paired 8-pane sashes with timber lintels, while the ground floor has a similar paired sashes to the left and a two-light casement to the right. A later rubble gabled porch has a fine studded 8-panel door with raised and revised moulded battens, a 19th-century chamfered frame, and a lintel string at ground and first floor levels. The lower two-storey wing to the right features a 20th-century two-light casement at ground and first floor, and a single-storey lean-to with a three-light casement. The rear elevation has an extended block with two two-light casements at first floor level, a rear door narrower than the front, studded and six-panelled, with an external stair, two single lights at ground floor and stair landing level, and two upper two-light casements, some with original glazing and cames, and wooden ovolo mullions.

The return to the right has a two-pane light in the gable end of the lower wing, illuminating the stair, while the return to the left has a 20th-century cellar light, a ground floor string, and a similar paired sash and two two-light casements at first floor level. The interior of the main house’s cellar retains an ovolo-moulded beam and the remains of a stone ovolo-moulded window; the rear cellar has a deep chamfered and stopped beam. The front left room has a two-panel door, a heavy plain-moulded cornice, a cupboard to the left of the fireplace with shaped shelves, and internal shutters to the windows. The room also features a similar door to the rear room in a chamfered and stopped frame. A 19th-century open-well stair rises to the attic level. The front room on the first floor mirrors the cornice below. The 19th-century roof is five-bay with principal rafters, two rows of purlins, collar, and king-post trusses.

The wing to the right has a lower floor level, a chamfered and moulded door frame, a heavy moulded beam, a moulded wall-plate, and a mortise for a screen at the party wall. A newel stair is situated to the side of the end stack.
