Description
The Manor House and former stables, located in Borrowdale Grange, date from the mid-17th century, with extensions from the 18th and 19th centuries, and alterations made in the 1920s. The building features painted roughcast walls and is topped with a graduated greenslate roof, which includes a large square stone chimney stack from the 17th century and a roughcast chimney stack on the extension.
The structure is two storeys high and consists of four bays, with the former stable on the right now integrated into the house under a common roof. There is a lower two-storey, two-bay extension at the left rear, creating an overall L-shape. A gabled stone porch features a 20th-century door flanked by small sidelights. A 20th-century verandah connects the porch to a right-angled shippon.
On the façade, there are 20th-century canted-bay oriel windows alongside two casement windows set in open reveals. The roof includes two gabled dormer windows. The extension has a four-panel door in a plain opening, and a large 20th-century bay window is situated beneath sash windows with glazing bars in plain reveals.
Inside the original house, there was a court cupboard dating to the 17th century, which was removed in the 20th century due to rot. A built-in cupboard in the extension bears an inscription and the date R.I.B. 1726.
