Description

Little Manse is a 17th-century house located in Kingsbury Episcopi, constructed from coursed and squared rubble with ashlar detailing. It features a double-Roman tiled roof with three brick stacks, a coped verge, and a crested ridge. The building is a single storey with an attic and has two bays. On the first floor, there are 19th-century three-light casements set in raking dormers. The ground floor showcases three-light moulded stone-mullioned windows with stopped labels, and there is a central door opening. Inside, there is a plank floor, and to the left, there is a 20th-century metal garage door with a concrete lintel.
