BRUNDISH THE STREET TM 27 SE
4/15 Brundish Manor (formerly - listed as the Manor House) 29.7.55
-- II*
Former farmhouse. Early-mid C16 main range of 3-cell cross-entry form; set corner-to-corner to the south west is a shorter service range, probably C16 but raised and re-roofed at a later date. Timber framed and plastered, with remains of old panelled plasterwork to main range. Thatched roofs. 2 storeys with attic to main range. Scattered fenestration: mostly C18 square-leaded casements and original windows with moulded mullions, the latter opened out during C20 restorations. Main range has C20 porch with hipped thatched roof and boarded door. Internal stack with C16-C17 plain oblong shaft; against the south gable end a C17 external stack with 2 square shafts set diamondwise. Service range has internal stack. Very fine interior with most of frame exposed. The hall has a moulded beam and joist ceiling and moulded cornice, the bridging beam and end cornices also enriched with brattishing. Joists have leaf-carved stops. Heads of storey posts carved in a similar manner to nearby Brundish House (Item 4/11). Fireplace lintol is carved with initial 'W' in a shield (probably for Wyard family), with a facing pair of winged beasts and wheatsheaf emblems. Arched doorways with carved spandrels and some good early doors. Evidence for screen at lower end of hall, with a moulded ceiling in the cross-passage. The present partition at the lower end of the hall must be a slightly later addition. Parlour and parlour chamber have moulded beam and joist ceilings and moulded cornices. Fine close studding in parlour. Stucco fireplace with sunk spandrels in hall chamber. Roof has a single row of clasped purlins and arched windbraces. Service range has some heavy plain ground floor joists; at the east end is a blocked secondary window with chamfered mullions replacing the original diamond-mullioned window. Part of a carved fireplace lintol, probably re-used from the main range. Sandon, Suffolk Houses, 1977, pp.129 & 253-4. Remains of medieval moated system.
