Description

The Manor House is a house and cottage that have been combined into one residence, dated 1730, featuring the initials I & RB (John & Ruth Bousfield) on a panel on the first floor of the cottage. The building is constructed of wet-dashed rubble and has a graduated slate roof with an outshut at the rear. It is 2½ storeys tall and has a total of 8 bays. The house includes a panelled door beneath a metal openwork porch, with two windows on either side on the ground floor and five windows on each floor above. The windows on the left side are narrower, and the attic windows are shorter than the others. The cottage has a 20th-century garage door with a window to the right and above it. All windows feature glazing bars, with most being fixed. The ground and first floor windows of the house have panelled internal shutters, and there are stone end chimneys on the house.
