SO 91 NW BADGEWORTH BENTHAM

4/22 Bentham Manor II

Large house. Possibly C13-C14 (see later) but may be in fact C17 in date. Large blocks of coursed squared and finely dressed limestone, randomly coursed in places; stone slate roof; C20 coursed squared and dressed limestone stacks and 2 brick stacks. Brick and timber framed porch. Rectangular plan with a projecting timber-framed porch. Two storeys and attic. Six-windowed entrance front. C19 two and 3-light casements some with transoms, mostly with horizontal glazing bars, some with leaded panes. Two-light stone-mullioned casement lower right. Three hipped dormers. Central 6-panel door with 2 fielded panels and 2 glazed panels set within a round-headed timber-framed surround. C13-C14 flat- chamfered pointed arch within the porch at the centre of the entrance front. The rear elevation has fenestration similar to that of the entrance front but includes some blocked windows and some single-light windows with flat-chamfered surrounds. Gable-end and axial stacks. It is uncertain whether the C13-C14 archway is insitu, but earthworks to the rear of the house suggest that this house does lie on an early site. Interior not inspected, exterior inspection only possible from the road.
