Description

Manor Cottages, located in Little Rissington, were originally a single house but are now divided into two. They date from the early to mid-17th century and were extended in the 20th century. The cottages are built from coursed squared and dressed limestone, featuring dressed stone quoins, and have a stone slate roof with ashlar stacks.

South Manor Cottage has two storeys and an attic with twin gables. Its facade has two windows, illuminated by 2 and 3-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements, some of which have hollow-moulded chamfers. There is a continuous hoodmould over the ground and first-floor windows. An unusually small 3-light casement with a hood is located on the right-hand gable, while a larger 2-light casement with a stopped hood is on the left. All casements have leaded panes. The central 20th-century plank door is set within a moulded 4-centred arched surround, complete with carved spandrels, imposts, and a keystone. There is also a 20th-century extension at the gable end.

West Manor Cottage also has two storeys and an attic. Its entrance front features two windows lit by 3 and 4-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements with continuous dripmoulds. There is a single-storey extension at right angles to the left, which has 3-light stone-mullioned casements, all with leaded panes. The right side has a 19th-century plank door within a flat-chamfered Tudor-arched surround, complete with imposts and a keystone. The symmetrical roadside front includes four Cotswold dormers, each lit by 2-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements with stopped hoods. The ground and first floors are also lit by 3-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements with continuous hoods. All casements feature leaded panes, some of which are small. The cottages have saddleback coping with moulded kneelers at the gable ends and at the gables facing the street. They feature twin axial and gable-end stacks, as well as a single axial composite stack, all with moulded cappings and skirtings. The interior is not accessible.
