Description
The Manor House is a late 17th-century building that has undergone alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed from coursed squared limestone and features old plain-tile roofs, with stone end stacks on the front block and tall lateral stacks on the wing. The house is designed in an L-shape and consists of two storeys and an attic.
The front range has a two-window layout, with a large 16-pane sash window on the left side of the ground floor, small 8-pane sashes on the right side of both the ground and first floors, and a 12-pane sash on the left side of the first floor, all fitted with timber lintels. The rear left wing has similar 16-pane sashes on the ground floor. There are one-light windows that light the staircase and narrow 19th-century sash windows on the first floor, all with wood lintels. The building features ironstone quoins, a chamfered plinth on the wing, and stone-coped gables with kneelers, along with two 20th-century hipped roof dormers.
Access to the house is through the rear, which has 20th-century double-leaf doors. Inside, there is an open fireplace with a stop-chamfered bressumer, stone flagged floors, and a fine open-well staircase that has fat turned balusters leading from the ground floor to the attic. The roof features a fine collar truss with two tiers of purlins. Surrounding the garden are attached walls made of coursed squared limestone and ironstone, topped with ridged ironstone coping.
