Description
Great Hundridge Manor is a house dating from the late 17th century, with extensions made in the 20th century. It features a flint rubble plinth and chequer brickwork, topped by a hipped old tile roof with a wooden modillion cornice and brick chimneys. The building is two storeys high and has a front with seven casement windows, all featuring gauged brick flat arches, wooden mullions, and transomes. Most windows are two-light, except for one-light windows located on either side of the door and the central first-floor window, all with leaded glazing. The entrance has a modern door with a rectangular fanlight, a pulvinated frieze, and a pediment hood supported by shaped brackets. A brick band with cyma reverse moulding runs along the first floor.
The rear elevation consists of three wide bays, with the two outer bays projecting slightly and featuring a hipped old tile roof. There is a central gabled dormer and three mullion-and-transome first-floor windows with leaded glazing. The rear also has modern half-glazed doors with a pediment above and three-light casements on either side.
There are two rear wings: the northeast wing, built in 1933 by Clough Williams-Ellis, is neo-Georgian with a brick structure and clay tile roof, featuring sash windows. The southeast wing, constructed in the 1950s to link the house with the chapel, is made of red brick, has a hipped clay tile roof with a wooden cornice, and includes mullion-and-transome windows.
Inside the original house, there is fine late 17th-century bolection moulded panelling in both front first-floor rooms, with similar panelling in the ground floor left-hand room, which also has an original fireplace flanked by fluted giant pilasters. The staircase features twisted balusters and a panelled dado, and there are three doorcases leading to the landing, all with panelling, cornices, and keyblocks.
