1. 5141 GLINTON HIGH STREET (north side) Manor House TF 1505 38/253 15.12.55 II* GV 2. Circa 1630-40. Built probably by the Wildebore family. Large coursed rubble and ashlar house with steeply pitched Collyweston stone roof. Two storeys and attic. Four window range. Gabled on left and gabled 2 storey and attic porch on right. The porch was intended to have been the centre feature with a balancing wing on the right, but this was either never carried out or has been demolished. Part of the base wall and skeleton window remain to indicate this. The gables are ogee-shaped and have ball finials at the apices and at the feet and have ovals in the tops of the gables. There is a similar gabled dormer at the centre. Two, 3 and 4-light stone mullion windows. The door surround is rusticated and pedimented, with round arched doorway with large vermiculated keyblock and moulded impost. Moulded string courses. On the north side there is another 2 storey and attic porch with a rusticated round arch, and an ogee-shaped gable. Large rusticated chimney stacks with cornices and pulvinated friezes.
