Description

Selwood Manor is a country house dating from the late 17th century. It is constructed of rubble with a triple-Roman tile roof and features five gabled dormers and three rubble stacks. The house has a regular frontage with a garden side that consists of two storeys and attics, arranged in seven bays. The windows are two-light, ogee-moulded stone-mullioned types, with transoms on the ground and first floors. There are stopped labels over the attic lights and weathered strings at the floor levels. The windows have iron-framed leaded casements, some of which retain 17th-century hinge plates and quadrants.

The door opening located in the third bay has a chamfered stone surround and a slab hood supported by moulded stone brackets, leading to a 20th-century reproduction panelled door. There is a single-storey outshut on each side of the house; the left outshut has a central door opening in a semi-circular headed stone surround, with a renewed plank door and two-light mullioned windows on either side. The right outshut is of 20th-century construction but matches the style of the house.

Inside, the manor features five contemporaneous moulded door architraves, three broad fireplaces with wooden lintels and rubble jambs, and a co-eval staircase, although the handrail and balusters have been renewed.
