Description
Manor House is a building from the mid 17th century that was remodeled in the early and mid 19th century. It is constructed of squared coursed limestone and features a Collyweston slate roof. The house has a three-unit plan with a cross wing and is two storeys tall with an attic. The main front has a four-window range, with a gabled cross wing that projects forward to the left.
On the first floor, there are 19th-century two-light stone mullion windows, with gablets over the ones to the left. The ground floor to the right has similar three-light windows. To the left, there is a square bay window next to a porch, which features a 19th-century four-light stone mullion window with arch-headed lights and a transom. The porch has a 19th-century glazed door with a four-centred head and a moulded stone surround. The porch and bay window have plain ashlar parapets.
In the gable of the cross wing, there is a 17th-century two-light stone mullion attic window. The building also has a moulded stone cornice and ashlar gable parapets. The ashlar stacks have moulded cornices, although the end stacks have been rendered.
The garden front, located to the left of the main front, was remodeled in the early 19th century and has a three-window range. The central bay projects forward with a gable and features a tall staircase sash window with glazing bars, set under a gauged stone head with a drip mould. The other windows are tripartite sashes with glazing bars; those on the ground floor are under gauged stone heads, while those on the first floor are under wood lintels.
The interior has not been inspected but is noted to have some panelled window reveals and a stick balustrade on the staircase. There is a 17th-century wing attached to the rear of the main front.
