Description
Manor House is a house dated 1703 above the entrance, with 19th-century alterations. It features random rubble red sandstone walls with raised quoins and a sub cornice, topped by a sandstone slate roof with end stone chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and has five bays. The entrance includes a six-panel top-glazed door set in a moulded architrave, with a pulvinated frieze and a projecting cornice above. The original sash windows, which have glazing bars, are framed in moulded architraves. However, three of the upper floor windows are now blocked and painted to appear as false windows, while there is a narrow fire window to the right. The lower window on the right and the end windows on the left are 19th-century double two-pane sashes.
