Description

The Manse is an early 18th-century house in a rubble construction with an artificial slake roof. It is a two-story building with five first-floor windows and includes a rear wing and a later rear outshut. The right side of the front features rusticated quoins. A bolection-moulded surround frames a partially glazed door, with a weathered plaque positioned above. On the ground floor, two sash windows are topped by deep lintels, while another two sash windows are set within moulded stone surrounds. The first floor features similar moulded stone surrounds, with irregular 20th-century glazing in most windows except for the central four-pane sash, which retains a stone lintel and cill. Shaped kneelers are present, topped by ashlar copings, and brick stacks are located at the ends and center of the building. A single-story extension to the right is not of particular architectural interest. The rear elevation features a moulded doorcase incorporated into a lean-to addition and also includes a blind first-floor window with a bolection surround.
