Manor House And Stables

The Manor House and Stables is a detached manor house dating from the mid-17th century, with a 19th-century extension at the rear. The building features dressed stone walls and a chamfered plinth, along with a continuous string-course raised above the front door. The slate roofs have stone gable copings and ovolo-moulded kneelers, with 19th-century brick stacks at each gable. The eaves have been raised, likely in the 19th century. The structure is two storeys high, with deep cellars and attics.

On the first floor, there are three windows, and on the ground floor, five windows, all with straight-chamfered mullions. The 19th-century wooden casements have horizontal glazing bars. The front door, located just to the right of the centre, has a very depressed-arch head and chamfered jambs, featuring a plank-and-muntin door with strap hinges. There are niches on either side of the front doorway, adorned with foliate ornament in the spandrels, though these have been partially removed, all set within a square-headed frame.

The rear elevation has a depressed-arch doorway at the centre, also with a plank-and-muntin door. The large 19th-century extension to the southeast has rubble-stone walls and a slate roof, with a canted bay on the south wall featuring sash windows and glazing bars.

Inside, the hall has re-set panelling with square framing and flat strap work on the upper string. There is a fireplace in the hall with moulded stone jambs and a concrete lintel above. The ceiling beams are mid-chamfered.

Attached to the west end is the stabling and store, which has rubble-stone walls and a hipped plain tile roof. The fenestration is irregular, with plank stable doors facing the street. There is also a store attached to the south, featuring a hipped slate roof and a brick stack at the north gable, and it is two storeys high. The windows here are 20th-century insertions, and there is a plank doorway to the lane with a segmental head.
