Description
This is a manor house, originally built as a rectory in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. It was altered in the mid-18th century and again in the 19th century. The exterior is roughcast and has an artificial stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high with a basement, and has a five-bay facade. A two-storey, pent-roofed porch sits centrally, with a leaf-patterned door below a five-pane window in a stone surround. Ground-floor windows are sash windows set in exposed boxes. First-floor windows are 20-pane sashes with arched lights at the top. An ashlar coping runs along the roofline. Rendered stacks are located at the ends of the building and between the second and third, and third and fourth bays.
The rear elevation has a three-bay recessed central section flanked by three bays on either side. Added canted bays contain sash windows. The recessed central bay features a part-glazed door with an ashlar surround and overlight, a first-floor sash window above, and an attic window with Gothic glazing bars; this attic window was formerly the head of a mid-18th century staircase window.
Inside, the ground floor features doors with six fielded panels, while upper floors have doors with two panels. A turned-baluster staircase connects the basement to the attic. The house contains several Carron cast-iron fire grates. The windows retain very thin, early glass.
