Description
Manor House is a detached house dating from the 17th century, with extensive alterations made in the early to mid-18th century and an early 19th-century addition. It is constructed of random rubble limestone, features ashlar chimneys, and has a stone slate roof. The house is two stories tall with an attic and has an attached kitchen block at the northwest corner.
The north front shows the original part of the house on the left, with scattered windows due to the raising of the eaves level, the addition of a roughly central parapet gable, and coved eaves. There is a central doorway with a flat stone porch hood supported by shaped brackets and a plank door. Above this is a deep 2-light casement, with a 2-light window in the gable. To the left on the ground floor, there is a 3-light window with a 2-light window above, all featuring chamfered mullions and leaded iron casements. Additional single and 2-light mullioned casements are found to the right. The house has three restored ridge-mounted chimneys with chamfered caps.
The kitchen block projects forward from the west end and has an ashlar chimney with a chamfered cap on the north gable end. A lower gabled projection features a reset 13th-century two-light lancet window in the gable apex. On the south side, there are 2, 3, and 4-light mullioned casements in a four-window elevation, many of which have been restored. An off-centered doorway with a flat stone porch hood is also present, along with three gabled roof dormers. The interior has not been inspected, but it is noted that there was a gabled 17th-century wing on the south side, which was demolished during alterations around 1935. The cellars are recorded to contain very early masonry, although this is now inaccessible.
