Butcombe Court Mulberry House The Old Manor

Butcombe Court, also known as The Old Manor and Mulberry House, is a detached house located on Butcombe Court Road. It is likely built on a medieval site and features a late 18th century structure with alterations and additions from the early and late 19th century. The exterior is rendered with dressed stone openings and copings, topped with slate roofs.

The north facade has seven bays, with a slightly advanced five-bay center, and the building stands two storeys high with attics. The windows are 19th century sixteen-pane sashes framed by moulded and keyed architraves. A central porch, which is late 19th century, is made of stone and features a cornice, blocking course, and a two-leaf door. The moulded parapet is adorned with decorative stone urns and pineapple finials on the set-back side wings. The hipped roofs are accompanied by rendered and brick stacks.

On the west facade, there is a one-storey lean-to conservatory, while the rear facade includes a six-panel door with a rectangular fanlight. Inside, there are two ground floor rooms that feature raised and fielded panelling, along with later strapwork ceilings and recesses dating from around 1880. The central passage contains 18th century panelling, and the northwest corner room has dado panelling with embossed leather panels above, as well as a fine late 18th century wooden chimney piece. The grand staircase and the panelled room in the northeast corner are both late 19th century additions.
