Manor House

Manor House, formerly known as Embsay Hall, is a building dating from around 1635, with alterations made in the mid-17th century and the 20th century. It is constructed of slobbered squared rubble with stone dressings and features a stone slate roof. The house has a lobby-entry plan and consists of two storeys with six bays.

A prominent gabled entrance porch projects from the fourth bay, featuring a central entrance with a chamfered surround, moulded impost blocks, and a basket arch made of 11 voussoirs. The inner entrance has a chamfered surround and a segmental arched lintel, leading to a plank door with strap hinges. Inside, there is embossed plaster decoration depicting lions and thistles. The upper floor of the porch overhangs on six stone corbels.

The building displays two datestones, likely reset, from the Alcock family, inscribed with "T E A W A A 16.52 1665." The windows include an 8-light double chamfered mullioned window that wraps around to the left and right, featuring a king mullion and a hoodmould. There is a blocked stepped 3-light mullioned window in the gable with a stepped hoodmould, and shaped kneelers and coping adorn the roof.

On the far left-hand bay, there are small chamfered windows on each storey. The remaining windows are double-chamfered with hoodmoulds, including ground floor windows of 4 and 5-light cavetto mullioned, 2-light mullioned, and a 6-light cavetto mullioned window with a king mullion. The upper floor has two 3-light, two 2-light, and one 3-light mullioned windows.

The chimney stacks are located on the left-hand former gable end ridge, right of centre, and the right-hand gable end ridge. Inside, the central ground floor room features early to mid-17th century plasterwork, including a lions mask panel surrounded by vines. There is also a plaster panel in the front left-hand room inscribed with "1636 TA." The upper floor contains a 17th-century oak partition and plank doors. No 32, a part of the building, includes a blocked inglenook in the right-hand gable.
