Old Manor House

This is a 17th-century house with a 19th-century addition and later alterations. The construction is primarily rubble stone, with brick window surrounds to the later addition and a brick stack. The roofs are covered in Roman clay tiles, and the first-floor and roof structures are oak.

The house is square in plan, originally a single unit, now subdivided internally. A single-bay extension exists at the south end. The ground floor is divided laterally beneath a principal beam to create two living areas. A further partition at the north-west end creates a utility room and bathroom. A winder stair is located to the right of the main entrance. The first floor has partitioning creating a small landing and two bedrooms, with a further bedroom in the 19th-century addition and a kitchen on the ground floor.

The two-story house has steep central gables to the front and rear, set within the main pitched roof. Two-light windows are centrally placed on each floor, both front and rear. A small stair window is under the eaves to the left of the front elevation. The 19th-century extension is set back and joined to the main house with a 20th-century enclosed porch under a lean-to roof. The extension has a window to the front and an upper window to the south flank, both with red brick heads. A 20th-century concrete block lean-to fills the rear of the extension and the main house. To the left of the rear elevation is a small stone-built outshut under a Roman tile roof. The north flank has two-light windows on the ground floor, and a centrally-placed opening above. There is a sealed window opening at attic level.

The entrance is through a four-centred arch door in the porch and 19th-century extension, standing on stone plinths, with the jamb to the right cut away. The first floor is supported by chamfered lateral and transverse beams with run-out or diagonal-cut stops at each end. The timber winder stair has replacement treads. A substantial chamfered tie beam spans the two principal bedrooms, running front to rear, with run-out stops at the east end, although the west end has been cut away, possibly to provide head room. The roof above the tie beam is inaccessible. Doors are timber plank with braces and ledges. Modern subdivisions are present on each floor.
