Description
The manor house is a symmetrical, two-story, three-window range dated to the 18th century. Its main front faces at a right angle to the street and is constructed of coursed squared limestone, topped with a hipped slate roof set back behind parapets with flat stone copings. Four stone stacks with brick caps are present. The windows are small-pane hornless sashes, with twelve panes above the central entrance and tripartite windows to the sides, all set under slightly cambered wedge lintels. A gabled, glazed wooden porch of approximately 2000 was added to the central entrance, which is framed by a tripartite stone doorcase with moulded pilasters, a pedimented head, and a six-panel door under a three-pane overlight, with small-pane sidelights. A wooden conservatory in the style of the porch was built in front of the right-hand window, featuring a hipped roof and with the original tripartite window converted into a doorway. The south end of the main range includes a single-story range adjoining at an angle, rendered with a slate roof and a brick end stack, thought to be of earlier origin.
The front facing Well Street involves numbers 10 and 12, with number 10 exhibiting higher floor levels due to the rising ground. Number 10 is a three-story, two-window structure of random stone, under a slate roof, featuring a stone plinth and a stone eaves cornice which continues the parapets from the west front. To the left of the ground and first floors are paired hornless twelve-pane sashes under slightly cambered wedge lintels; a small sash with no glazing bars sits under a similar lintel on the second floor. To the right are blind openings with matching lintels, where a ground-floor doorway was likely blocked with stone. First and second-floor windows are infilled with lined render. Number 12 adjoins to the left and shares the same eaves cornice. It is a two-story, two-window building constructed of larger blocks of random stone. The upper story has twelve-pane sashes under wedge lintels. One opening on the lower right has been replaced by a cross window with small-pane glazing. A rectangular doorway on the left leads to inset double panelled doors, accessed by three stone steps; a Victorian slated porch canopy has been removed.
Inside, the entrance hall features a plastered ceiling cornice with an Anthemion frieze. Panelled doors are present to the left and right, leading to bar areas, and straight ahead, with further panelled doors elsewhere in the house.
