Manor House, Suttons Road, South Shoebury - Southend-on-Sea (UA)

House, 1681. Currently vacant, last used as residential quarters. Re-use of the building is complicated by its location within a military site. A serious dry rot problem was treated 1998 to 2003 but has caused considerable damage to the interior. The building has been vacant for many years. Rigid application of three-year break clause in all long leases granted by Ministry of Defence has seriously worsened potential for reuse by charitable trusts. Defective rainwater goods were repaired in 2018 to address serious water ingress. The overall condition of the building continues to decline.
