Description
Scosthrop Manor House is a manor house, now a private residence, dating from the early 17th century, with a later porch dated 1686 and restored in 1905. The building is constructed of slobbered rubble with stone dressings and a stone-slate roof, while the porch features dressed stone. It has two storeys and five bays.
To the left of the centre is a two-storey gabled porch. The entrance features moulded jambs and a carved datestone with the initial "A" and a hoodmould above. The upper floor has a three-light double chamfered window with cavetto transoms and mullions, and the central light is stepped with a hoodmould over it. The gable is finished with stone coping and shaped kneelers topped with ball finials.
On the left side of the porch, there is a ground floor single-light chamfered window. Above the door inside the porch is a panel inscribed "L 16035 S," though the meaning of the "35" is unclear as it is carved in a less skilled manner. To the left of the porch, there is one ground floor window from around 1905 in a 17th-century style and one early 17th-century double-chamfered two-light window with a cavetto mullion, along with a similar but taller window on the upper floor.
To the right of the porch, there is a ground floor four-light double chamfered window with cavetto mullions, a king mullion, and a hoodmould, alongside a c1905 window in a 17th-century style. The upper floor contains a three-light chamfered mullioned window with a later lintel (likely from around 1905), as well as a two-light and a four-light double chamfered mullioned window. All windows have c1905 casements and fixed lights.
The building features gable-end ridge stacks and a ridge stack to the right of the entrance. The left gable end includes a two-light double-chamfered mullioned window on the ground floor. A rear gabled extension was added in 1905 during the restoration of the house.
