Manor House

Manor House is a house built around 1690 for James Townsend I, later enlarged and altered in the 18th century. It features English bond brickwork and tiled roofs, and is designed in a 'U'-plan with a central block and forward end wings on the north side, which is the entrance side. The courtyard was filled in during the 18th century with a garden wall bond, leading to a large stair hall and stair. To the left is a formerly detached 17th-century dwelling, likely a curate's house, which has been modified to include a kitchen and services.

The central entrance door is approached by steps and is panelled, set within a stone surround topped with a timber pediment on cut brackets. The wings have 16-paned sash windows with concealed boxes, gauged brick lintels, and keystones. A moulded string course runs along the building, extending over the central infilling as a plat band. The central section features a gabled roof with stone copings and rampant lion terminals, while an oval window is located in the attic. The wings have hipped roofs and there are two 3-flue brick stacks with shafts joined at the heads.

The left building has 3-light stone-mullioned windows and is extended at an angle at the rear to form a wing. The date on the rainwater hoppers is 1781. Inside, the drawing room in the original central block at the rear of the hall has 18th-century panelling, and there are remnants of similar panelling in the large parlour in the right wing. The small parlour in the left wing retains complete 17th-century oak panelling, which was brought from Frome and reset in the early 19th century. The stair is from the early 19th century.
