Description

The Manor House, now subdivided, consists of a 16th-century south range and a late 17th-century north block. It features a timber frame with colourwashed plaster infill and rubblestone plinths, topped with old tile roofs. The building has two storeys with an attic and leaded windows.

The south range has four bays, a central compound stack, and an eastern gabled stair tower with original treads and a newel post. The west elevation includes a board door in the third bay and leaded casements, with an early 18th-century box sash window on the left. The first floor showcases ovolo moulded mullioned leaded windows of three lights, oriels in the outer bays, and a later four-light leaded casement in bay three. A flat roof dormer is present on the left side. The east elevation facing the street has leaded casements, including a 16th-century window in the stair tower.

The north block features moulded framed windows with mullions and transoms, including a three-light window in the outer bay of the south return and two-light windows elsewhere. A door is set under a tile hood at the angle with a two-light casement above. The street front has a left hip and a recessed centre, with moulded eaves. The west elevation facing the garden has cross-casements and a door, while the north return of the 16th-century range has been altered with an early 18th-century box sash on the ground floor. A five-light late 17th-century gabled oriel is located on the first floor, with coving above to the half hip of the main roof, and there are two dormers. The north elevation of the north block has cross casements, one on the first floor and one at the stair half landing, along with a large compound stack on the east roof ridge.

Inside, the 16th-century range features chamfered and stopped spine beams. The ground floor room in the north block has 17th-century painted "panelling" in ochres and browns over original framing, now largely concealed by early 18th-century moulded framed panelling. The north block also contains a late 17th-century staircase with a closed string, turned balusters, ball finials on the newels, and a moulded handrail. The east elevation of the north block bears the date '1675', which may be genuine.
