Description
The Old Manor House is a detached house dating from the late 18th century, possibly built on an older core. It features a rear wing that is likely from the 19th century and a small extension added in the 20th century. The exterior is made of random coursed rubble stone with a hipped stone slate roof and stone ridge stacks that have a moulded cornice.
The building is L-shaped and consists of two storeys and an attic, with the rear extension on the left also having two storeys and a parapet wall. There are three windows: one in the left-hand projecting wing and two in the main section. Each window bay has a full dormer with paired leaded casements beneath a straight head with rounded corners. On the first floor, each bay features paired arched lights under a cambered head with a hoodmould. The ground floor has a similar arched light in the centre, with a door of six fielded panels immediately to the left, set in an angle with a cambered head and a raking porch hood.
To the left and right, there are slightly projecting square bays with raking roofs and three Tudor arched lights that extend to full height. There is also a similar two-light window on the left-hand return. The rear wing contains late 19th or early 20th-century glazing bar wood mullions and transoms. The interior is not accessible but may hold some interest.
