Description
Cross Manor is a detached house located in Ringmore Village, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries, with significant modifications made in the 20th century. The building is constructed of colour-washed thin bedded rubble, rendered on the main south front, and features a thatched roof. It may have originally had a cross-passage plan with outbuildings to the left. The structure is a long, narrow block with a return wing at the left end and two back extensions.
The house has two storeys with scattered fenestration, all featuring 20th-century casements with diagonal leading. On the ground floor, there are paired 2-light windows, followed by a prominent stepped buttress, and then single, double, and 3-light windows. The first floor has three 2-light windows. A lean-to porch on the left has a cross plank door with a glazed panel. There is a gable stack on the right and a ridge stack off-centre to the left. The left end of the house is hipped, while the right gable facing the street has an external straight stack and a small blocked opening. To the right, there is a lower thatched outbuilding with a plank door.
Inside, the interior is mainly from the 20th century and features a pegged A-frame roof. Near the entrance, there are a pair of rounded piers, which may be remnants of an earlier barn or outhouse. At the back, there are glazed French doors.
