Description

Manor House is a building dating from the mid 17th century and the 19th century. It is constructed of regularly coursed limestone and features 20th-century plain tile and slate roofs. The house originally had a two-unit plan and stands two storeys high with an attic. The main front has a three-window range and a central gabled two-storey porch. The outer porch door has a stone lintel, and there is a studded plank inner door with strap hinges, surrounded by a moulded stone frame with a four-centre head. The first floor of the porch and the left bay have restored 19th-century three-light stone mullion windows, while the ground floor window features a hood mould. The right bay has casement windows with glazing bars and wood lintels. The building has ashlar gable parapets and truncated ashlar stacks at both ends. There is a 19th-century single-unit extension with an attic attached to the right, which includes two casement windows with glazing bars and a slate roof. The left gable has a single-light attic window with a moulded stone surround. The rear elevation has a three-window range with two casement windows under wood lintels and one late 19th-century oriel window on the far left. There is a mid-19th-century square stone bay to the right and a pair of central glazed doors with a lattice porch. The interior has not been inspected but is noted to have panelled window reveals.
