Description
Shrewton Manor is a detached house located on Shrewton High Street. It dates back to the early 17th century, was rebuilt in the late 17th century, and has a 19th-century two-storey wing at the rear, along with a two-storey extension added around 1900 to the right of the front. The building features a combination of limestone and flint, partly plastered, with rendered brick in the 19th-century sections, and has tiled roofs and brick stacks.
The house has a T-plan layout and a two-storey front with five windows, including a projecting cross wing from 1602 on the left. The left side features a door with six fielded panels set in an early 19th-century surround with a flat wooden hood. To the right is a blocked chamfered doorcase and a 20th-century stone canted bay with ovolo-mullioned windows, along with a two-light ovolo-mullioned window. The first floor of the 17th-century range has one four-light ovolo-mullioned window and one four-light chamfered mullioned window, with a coped verge on the right side of the roof.
The right return of the projecting wing has a three-light ovolo-mullioned window on the ground floor and a two-light casement on the first floor. The front of the gable end features a four-light ovolo-mullioned window on both the ground and first floors, and a four-light chamfered mullioned window in the attic, with a datestone inscribed with 1602 above it, and coped verges on the roof.
Attached to the right is a range from around 1900, which includes a central planked door with a flat hood, one tripartite sash window, and four small sash windows. The first floor has three dormers partially set into the roof, featuring sash windows. The right return has four-pane sashes on the first floor.
The rear of the house has two two-light ovolo-mullioned windows and two glazed doors on the ground floor of the 17th-century part, with one two-light ovolo-mullioned window and one three-light casement on the first floor. The 19th-century projecting wing to the right has French windows on the ground floor and twelve-pane sashes on the first floor. The range to the left from around 1900 has three twelve-pane sashes on the ground floor and in the half dormers.
Inside, the house retains 17th-century features, including an open fireplace with a chamfered lintel and run-out stops, chamfered beams with ogee stops, and a fireplace in the cross wing with a double-ovolo-moulded surround. There is also a plank and muntin partition between the main range and the wing.
