Manor Cottage Manor Hose Annex And Attached Wall The Manor House

Manor Cottage, together with The Manor House and its Annex, form a group of three houses built at the end of a row, likely originally as a single residence. The core of the structure dates to the mid-17th century, although it was refaced in the 19th century. The construction utilizes coursed squared and dressed limestone, with a stone slate roof at the front and concrete tiles at the rear. Ashlar stacks, along with 20th-century stacks imitating ashlar, are present, as are slate-roofed extensions to the rear. Corrugated iron and flat-roofed extensions with concrete tile, at the rear, are not considered to be of particular architectural interest.

The main body of the building is two storeys and an attic. The facade of The Manor House (central) and the Manor House Annex (at the end of the row) are early 19th century in character. The attic is lit by three gabled eaves dormers featuring “Gothic” windows within double-chamfered stone surrounds, with curving bargeboards and pointed finials. The central facade has four windows, each a 2- or 3-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casement with stopped hoods. A part-glazed 20th-century front door provides access to The Manor House, with a boot scraper positioned to the left of the door. A heraldic shield is located at first-floor level above the door. Two blocked doorways, one with a keystone, are evident to the far right of the window. Access to the Manor House Annex is gained through a part-glazed 19th-century door with decorative coloured marginal glass at the gable end, alongside a matching double door. A large decorative wrought iron porch shelters both doors.

Manor Cottage, situated on the left, presents a Georgian-style facade. This section is symmetrical and features a two-windowed design with 12-pane sashes. A central fielded 6-panel front door (with the two upper panels glazed) is recessed and accessed via two steps, with a boot scraper within the recess. A continuous flat-chamfered string course runs along the eaves of all three properties. Saddleback coping is present at the gable ends, along with kneelers featuring pointed finials. Axial and gable-end stacks, constructed of ashlar and featuring moulded cappings, are incorporated, as well as square brick chimney pots.

A wall is attached to the right of the Manor House Annex and contains a doorway with a stopped hood and a moulded crenellated capping.

Inside, numbered joists marked with Roman numerals can be seen, along with traces of 17th-century window openings in the former rear wall of The Manor House.
