Description
The Old Manse is a house that was originally the manse for the Congregational Chapel, now the United Reform Church. It dates from the early 19th century and is constructed of banded ironstone and limestone, topped with a slate roof and featuring brick end stacks. The building has a central staircase plan and is two stories tall with a three-window range. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door with an overlight that includes fanlight glazing, surrounded by a pilastered wood frame and a straight hood supported by brackets. On either side of the door are tripartite sash windows with cemented flat-arched heads. The first floor features 16-pane sash windows, also with flat-arched heads. The interior has not been inspected.
