Description
The Manse is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the mid-18th century and later. The front of the building has been rebuilt using red and vitreous brick, featuring a moulded plinth, a first-floor band course, and eaves. The left side is constructed of thin brick in English bond. It has an old tiled roof that is hipped to the left, and a chimney with two square shafts made of thin brick located on the right side. The house is two storeys high and has two bays. On the ground floor, there are four-pane sash windows, with the window on the right having a segmental head. The upper windows are 20th-century paired barred wooden cross casements. The central door, also from the 20th century, is topped by an 18th-century flat wooden cornice hood supported by brackets.
