3/95 Manor House

II
House. Core probably of C16, extended or extensively altered in the early C17, and partly refaced in brick in the C18. Now largely rough cast. Plain tiled roof. 2 storeyed, the plan consists of 2 parallel gables running north west south east, possibly of different construction dates: the entrance front is in the gable end, and has a central doorway flanked by 4 light tall wood mullioned and transomed windows on each floor. Embattled string course above the first floor windows. Both the gables have steeply coped parapets. Indications of cambered rail of timber framing above doorway. South west elevation also has parallel steeply coped gables, each with paired 4 light wood mullioned and transomed windows on each floor, and a string course above. Beyond, a further bay is a late C18 addition, with enbattled parapet concealing a single slope roof, and giving false front with sash window cut by inner floor level. Rear elevation is of exposed brickwork, 4 light wood mullioned and transomed window to lower right, and to stair, the latter retaining its original glazing in leaded lights. Other windows here are casements of 2 and 3 lights. Various blocked or partly blocked openings also. Range of C19 outbuildings to south east with gabled frontispiece to coach entry now integral with house. Inside, the house has received a number of alterations and the 3 principal fireplaces appear to have been largely rebuilt. However an early C17 staircase survives, with splat balusters. 2 rooms, one on each floor, have fine moulded ceiling beams and joists; rolled and fluted mouldings which continue through the sharp chamfer stops. Upper lime plaster floor dated 1605. Exposed timber framing inside reveals square panelled construction with straight arched bracing. Roof construction consists of 2 parallel ridges and 1 lateral ridge which runs south west north east, and with wind bracing in part.
