Anderson Manor

Anderson Manor is a manor house built in 1622 for John Tregonwell and restored around 1912. It is constructed with brick walls in a garden wall bond, featuring burnt headers and stone dressings on a flint plinth. The building has tiled roofs with moulded copings to the parapets and gables, topped with ball finials at the apex and springing. Two brick stacks, symmetrically arranged, are present, each with four diagonally set shafts and oversailing caps.

The house follows a double-pile plan with parallel roofs. A kitchen wing was added to the north-west corner later in the 17th century, accompanied by a lower service range to the west. The main house is three stories high and symmetrical, with projecting gabled wings at each end. Moulded stone string courses mark each floor level. A central, three-story, half-octagonal porch features a moulded arched doorway with a dropped keystone. On the first floor, a two-light stone mullioned and transomed window with lead lights is centrally positioned. Similar windows, without transoms, are found on the second floor. Ground and first floor windows on either side of the porch are also two-light, stone mullioned and transomed with lead lights. The wings mirror this design on the ground and first floors, with second-floor windows matching those above but without transoms, all under label moulds. Lead rainwater heads are inscribed with “1 (J) T 1622.” A half-gable wall of the kitchen wing projects to the left of the main range, also of three stories and an attic. It has three-light stone mullioned windows with lead lights on the ground, first, and second floors, with a blocked window above. A two-story service range is situated to the left. The roof features stone eaves courses.

The main entrance has a heavy, studded oak door with a spy-hole. Inside, the hall contains a stone four-centred arched fireplace and 17th-century oak panelling, alongside an early 20th-century plaster ceiling in a 17th-century style. A heavy oak plank and muntin partition separates the Hall and Dining Room. The Dining Room features a large arched stone fireplace. The west stair, dating to the 17th century, is constructed with a close string and heavy turned balusters. The later 17th-century east stair also has a close string but lighter turned balusters. A chamber above the Hall has an ornamental plaster roundel in the center of the ceiling and includes a stone arched fireplace.
