Description
Manymans Mead is a building that originally consisted of three cottages, now combined into one house. It dates from the early 17th century and early 18th century. The structure features square-panelled timber-framing with brick nogging, and part of it has been rebuilt in dressed stone from the early 18th century. The roof is covered with concrete tiles and has a half-hip on the right side; it was formerly thatched. The building is two stories high and has four windows, which are casements.
The entrance is a six-panelled door located to the left of the center, set within a gabled porch. To the left of the door, there are three 3-light casements and one 2-light casement. On the right side, there is one 3-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement and one 2-light casement. On the first floor, the left side features two 2-light and one 3-light casements, while the center has a 3-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement with a moulded string course above it, and the right side has a 2-light casement. The left two bays are partly constructed of rubble stone and have lower eaves. The right return of the building has a 20th-century casement on the ground floor, revealing exposed framing.
At the rear, there is a 20th-century outshut on the right side, which includes gabled dormers, casements, and a 3-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement in the center. The interior was restored in the 1970s and features deeply chamfered beams, two open fireplaces with chamfered lintels on stone jambs, and a fine early 17th-century staircase with moulded splat balusters and a wide moulded handrail, along with square newels.
