Description
The Manor House and an attached house, now used for multiple accommodations, likely originated in the 17th century and was significantly enlarged during the 18th century. An early 19th-century rear range was added, alongside later 19th and 20th-century additions and alterations. The original house was constructed of rendered stone rubble with a slurried and bitumenised slate roof, ridge tiles, a gable end stack with a brick shaft to the right, and an axial stack with a truncated rubble shaft at the original right gable end. The attached house is of painted rubble with a slurried scantle slate roof, ridge tiles, gable ends, and gable end stacks, one with a 20th-century brick shaft and the other a truncated shaft.
The original house comprised a two-room plan with a central passage, each room heated by a gable end stack. An 18th-century one-room plan addition was built to the right, heated by a gable end stack, and a separate, unheated one-room plan addition was added to the front left. Around the early to mid-19th century, a parallel three-room plan rear range was added to the left, featuring a canted bay at the right end with a rear lateral stack. A subsequent rear addition now forms part of a separate house, Bay View Cottage. An early 19th-century two-room plan house was added to the left end, with gable end stacks for each room.
The asymmetrical two-storey front features a left-hand wing with a hipped roof, containing a 20th-century window on both the ground and first floors and on the side elevation. The original cottage has one bay to the front with 20th-century windows on the ground floor; the rightmost window was originally the entrance, and it is surmounted by a plate-glass sash in a raking dormer. A late 19th-century canted porch with 4-pane sashes and an outer door with sidelights fronts the right side, leading to a 20th-century half-glazed door. The first floor has a central 12-pane sash with 20th-century sidelights. An end bay to the right has a plate-glass sash at ground floor and a 20th-century window in a raking dormer. The 18th-century gable end on the right side is blind. To the right there is an early 19th-century two-storey canted bay with a flat roof; the ground floor has a 20-pane sash with 20th-century sidelights, and the first floor has a 12-pane sash with Gothic glazing bars and 20th-century sidelights. A 19th-century 16-pane sash is on the first floor on the left side, and a 20th-century external staircase leads to a first-floor door.
The attached house on the left end exhibits a symmetrical two-window front, with 20th-century French windows and a porch on the ground floor. The first floor has a 19th-century 16-pane sash to the left and a 20th-century 12-pane light to the right. Interior alterations have been extensive. A first-floor rear room with the canted bay contains a 4-panelled Gothic door. The attached house on the left features a winder stair with stick balusters and columnar newels to the rear centre.
