Description
Manor Cottage is a cottage built around 1867, likely designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott, who also enlarged the nearby Manor. The cottage is constructed of red brick with plum brick bands and features stone window frames, topped with old tile roofs. It has two storeys and two bays, with the right bay being gabled. The left bay includes a board door set in a lean-to tiled porch, and a two-light casement window on the ground floor. The first floor has a gabled two-light casement window. There is a diagonal flue behind the ridge and segmental arched openings throughout. The right bay features a two-storey canted bay window with stone mullioned windows and a vent in the gable. A right-hand lateral stack has two diagonally set flues. The cottage shares identical details and style with Scott's enlargement of the Manor House.
