Lufton Manor House

Lufton Manor House is a large detached house dated 1900, located in Brympton d'Evercy. It is built of red brick in stretcher bond, indicating an early use of cavity walling, with Ham stone dressings. The house features hipped Welsh slate roofs and brick chimney stacks with moulded stone caps. Designed in the Queen Anne style, it has an H-plan layout with two storeys and a nine-bay east elevation, where the first, second, eighth, and ninth bays are projecting crosswings.

The exterior includes a brick plinth, a stone band course between floors, and rusticated stone quoins. A timber dentilled cornice with a secret gutter is present, along with sash windows that have flush fitting moulded boxes. The outer bays have 8-pane windows, while the windows in bays three to seven are irregularly set lower within a small flat-roofed section that spans between the projecting bays. This section features a parapet with moulded stone coping, smaller sashes, and one circular window flanking the central bay, which is stone-faced and topped with a three-light stone mullioned window that has rectangular leaded glass. This window is under a cornice and a broken segmental pediment adorned with ball finials at the center and ends, resting on parapet plinths.

There is a projecting porch with rusticated quoins and an open pediment covering a pitched lead sheet roof, which features a semi-circular outer arch with an architrave, impost blocks, and a triple keystone, leading to glazed inner doors. A lower wing extends to the north-east. The west garden front has seven bays that match the east elevation, with the first, second, sixth, and seventh bays projecting. It includes 12-pane sash windows on both levels and features a single-storey Doric colonnade loggia spanning between the projections. The interior has not been seen.
