Description
Manor House is a house dating from the late 16th century, with alterations made in the early 19th century. The front features 19th-century chequer brick on the ground floor, while the rest of the building is timber framed with patterned brick infill, mostly arranged in a herringbone pattern. There is a 16th-century brick plinth that is partly moulded. The rear wing is timber framed with plaster infill, and the left side was rebuilt in the 19th century using red brick. The roofs are tiled, and there are brick chimneys with square shafts set diagonally; the chimney between the left bays has two shafts, while the one in the right-hand bay has four shafts and a modillion base. The house has an irregular T-plan with a long rear wing and is two storeys high, featuring three bays on the front. The outer bays are gabled and project forward, each with barred tripartite sash windows on the ground floor and horizontal sliding barred sashes on the first floor. The centre bay includes paired barred casements above a half-glazed, six-panelled door, which is topped by a radiating semi-circular fanlight. The porch has an arched roof and a similar fanlight above double three-panelled doors. There is a small two-storey extension set back on the right side, made of whitewashed brick and roughcast. Inside, a room in the rear wing has moulded cross beams.
