Description
The Manor is a house, originally a farmhouse, dating to the mid-to-late 17th century, with alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of coursed squared ironstone, banded with limestone, with a slate roof and brick end stacks on stone bases. The building is laid out in an L-shape.
The front features a two-storey porch in the re-entrant angle. This has a 20th-century studded plank door with a moulded wooden surround and a stop-chamfered lintel, and two-light ovolo-moulded stone mullion windows to the ground and first floors; the first-floor window is blocked, and the ground floor has a hood mould. A plain stone-coped parapet tops the porch. Similar windows are found on the left wing, a three-light window above with a hood mould. The wing to the right of the porch has a three-light casement window where there was previously a four-light stone mullion window, and a similar three-light window above, both with hood moulds. The rear garden front has stone surrounds and hood moulds to three- and four-light stone mullion windows, most of which have been replaced by casements, except for one that is now a garden door. Two- and three-light ovolo-moulded stone mullion windows are found on the right side elevation, all with hood moulds; those to the ground and first floor centre and gable have been replaced by casements. Other details include quoins, a chamfered plinth, and stone-coped gables with kneelers. A single-storey extension to the right wing has a plain tile roof, a four-panel back door with a wood lintel, and a three-light casement window with a wood lintel.
An attached L-plan outbuilding has a front wall of red brick and a two-bay cart shed, open to the yard, with elliptical-arched openings. A return wing contains three loose boxes.
Internally, a wall retains a large Tudor-arched stone corner fireplace with cut spandrels. A similar, smaller fireplace is in another room. A large open fireplace has a bar with a stop-chamfered cambered bressumer. An upstairs room has a stone corner fireplace with a cambered chamfered stone lintel. Other features include stop-moulded spine beams, stop-chamfered spine beams, ogee stop-chamfered joists, a dog-leg staircase to the attic, and a collar-truss roof.
