Description
Manor House is a detached house dating from the 17th century and later. It is constructed of local lias stone with a rendered finish and features Ham stone dressings. The roof is covered with double Roman clay tiles, mostly with plain gables, and there are stone chimney stacks. The house has two storeys and a three-bay south elevation. The first bay has an angled two-storey bay with one plus three plus one wave and hollow chamfered mullioned windows, which are leaded below. This bay is topped with coped gables on shaped corbel brackets. The second bay has a 20th-century steel casement window with small panes, set into a plain pitched roof dormer, while the third bay also features a 20th-century steel casement window. A part-glazed door from the 20th century leads to the lower second bay. The interior has not been seen.
