Description
Rillington Manor is a country house built in 1913, designed by Sidney Kitson for W H Hudleston. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with timber eaves and features a sandstone ashlar door-case and a pantile roof, showcasing the Queen Anne style.
The entrance front is two stories with an attic and consists of a three-bay center range flanked by projecting single-bay wings, along with a single-storey service range to the left. The wings have rusticated quoins, and the center range features a full-height round-arched arcade that extends to the returns of the wings. The central entrance has an open-pedimented door-case with pilaster jambs, which contains double panelled doors and a cartouche with a motto in the tympanum. On either side of the entrance, there are 15-pane sash windows beneath cambered arches, and the wings have tripartite sashes under triple-keyed segment arches. The first-floor windows include 12-pane sashes beneath flat arches in the wings and unequal 9-pane sashes under the round arches of the arcade. A first-floor sill band of four raised courses and a mutule cornice are present. The hipped roofs have overhanging sprocketed eaves, and flat dormers with 4-pane sashes are situated between volutes. The building features panelled and corniced stacks at the center of the ridge and on the wings.
The garden front is also two stories with an attic and has a five-bay layout, including three full-height canted bays at the outer ends. To the right, there is a single-storey glazed loggia supported by Doric columns. The front has rusticated quoins, with a central glazed door flanked by 15-pane sashes beneath cambered arches. The first-floor windows are 12-pane sashes beneath flat arches, and there is an uncarved raised panel of sandstone at the center. A first-floor sill band of four raised courses is present, and the loggia roof is hipped to the right.
Inside, the original decorative scheme has been preserved, featuring plaster wall and ceiling mouldings in all main rooms on the ground and first floors. The hall and landing have wall panelling, and there are panelled doors with original fittings throughout. A panelled staircase in a style from around 1700 adds to the interior's historical character.
