House, now divided. C17, enlarged and altered early C19. Rendered, slate roof with deep eaves and soffit board, gabled to right, hipped on wing to left, brick stacks left and right of original block. Plan: 2 cell and cross passage derrivative facing West, enlarged to "U"-shape at later date and linked to existing building to the North in early C19 forming a roughly "L"-block. 2-storeys, irregularly placed fenestration, first floor three 4-light mullion windows, early C19 casements with leaded panes, groundfloor 4-light mullions flanking C20 door right, with 3-light to left, and C20 door beyond left; centre 2 ground floor windows have hood moulds, and both doors have flat roofed porches carried on brackets. C20 fenestration in one bay wing projecting left. Interior: kitchen to left of cross passage contains steeply chamfered beams without stops and room to South East has early C19 plaster frieze. This was never the Manor House, it was probably so named at the tine of the early C19 enlargement.
