The Manor House

The Manor House is a manor house dating from the 15th to 17th centuries, with 19th-century additions. It was likely originally built for the De Roos family. The house is constructed of ironstone and limestone with ashlar dressings and a Collyweston slate roof. It currently has a three-unit plan, though it was originally larger. The main front has two storeys and an attic. The first floor has a three-window range of five-light wood mullion and transom windows, all under wood lintels. At ground floor level, there are two pairs of 15th-century two-light stone mullion windows with arch-head lights, cusping, and hood moulds. Two two-light wood casements are located to the far right, and an arch-head door opening to the far left has a moulded stone surround and plank door. Another plank door is situated to the right of centre, also under a wood lintel. The building has two three-stage gable parapets and ashlar stacks at the ridge and ends. All windows have leaded diamond panes. Two shields are positioned above the entrance door, one showing the coat of arms of the De Roos family. A datestone is set in the apex of the right gable, and the left gable features a large chimney projection with a buttress and evidence of blocked openings. 19th and 20th-century extensions are visible to the rear, and the right bay of the main front was probably added in the late 17th century, with the house presumably extended further to the left at that time.

Inside, a room to the rear of the house, to the right of the entrance, has an open fireplace with a bressumer. The centre room and the room to the far left have high ceilings and moulded spine beams supported on arched corbels between the windows. A 17th-century wood dog-leg stair has a short turned balustrade at attic level. The first-floor rooms also feature moulded spine beams, and the centre room contains a large, likely 15th-century stone fireplace with a sloping hood. A close-studded screen separates the first-floor rooms. The roof structure is partially 17th-century, retaining original trusses and some curved wind braces.
