Description
Wooth Manor is a detached house that was formerly a manor house, dating from the early 17th century, with a mid-18th century extension at the south end due to fire damage and subsequent rebuilding. The exterior features coursed rubble stone walls alongside red brick walls from the 18th century. The building has a continuous label above the right-hand ground floor and separate labels over the first-floor windows. It is topped with a slate roof and stone gable copings, and has brick stacks located at the left-hand gable, left of centre, and the right-hand gable. The 17th-century windows are iron casements with lead lights, while the 18th-century windows on the south side are wide two-light casements. The front door, which is positioned left of centre in the brick section, has panelled reveals and a four-centred head, with a panelled door and fanlight above. The current front door has been relocated to the south gable end. At the rear, there is an early 17th-century staircase tower featuring ovolo stone mullions and separate labels above the windows. The north end of the house has a 19th-century attached 'Gothick' brick tower, which is two storeys high and includes pilaster buttressing and two small pointed lights on each storey. The parapet has raised corners and a raised centre, both coped. A 19th-century service range is gabled at the rear of the house, with brick walls and stone copings, and features three-light iron casements with lead lights. Inside, there is a stone fireplace with moulded jambs and a three-centred head, and a plain round newel staircase from the 19th century with simple balusters.
