Place Manor

Place Manor is a country house that was formerly part of an Augustinian Priory, located next to the Church of Saint Anthony. It was first recorded around 1288. The current structure includes a section from the 16th century but has been largely remodeled and extended around 1840. The building features stucco over rubble walls and dry slate roofs with coped gable ends and brick gable chimneys. It has a T-shaped plan that adjoins the church's cruciform plan and is designed in a symmetrical Tudor Gothic style.

The manor is two storeys high with a central stair and an attic. The north front has nine windows, with flanking wings that have two windows at a lower level. The central entrance porch, which is open and features three pointed arched openings and diagonal buttresses, leads to a room above that has a three-light mullioned window. Above this, there is a further floor with a two-light window and a hollow sprocketted pyramidal roof with a gablet ventilator, likely a later 19th-century addition.

The central doorway within the porch has two glazed doors with Gothic detailing and a Gothic fanlight. All the windows have arched lights and moulded hoodmoulds, some of which incorporate the Spry family motto: 'Soyez sage et simple'. The ground floor windows feature central mullions with turned shafts and carved capitals, and there is a string course at the first-floor sill level. Four two-light roof dormers with polygonal roofs and shaped wooden eaves brackets are also present.

The left wing is one storey over a basement and has a central four-light mullioned window with a transom, as well as a coped gable with a ventilator above. It features a sill string, a single light window on the left, and an arched doorway with a planked door on the right, accessed by a flight of steps from the left. The right wing has three-light mullioned windows on the ground floor with transoms, and similar two-light windows with gables above on the first floor. There is also a reused 16th to 17th-century segmental arched granite doorway to the right.

Inside, there are two arched granite doorways in the rear wing and five moulded and carved cross beams that date from the 16th century. The vestibule and stairwell feature 19th-century Gothic details, while the rest of the interior has not been inspected.
