HALL YARD
No.27 (Manor Cottage) and House attached to and West of No 27
II
GV
House, originally part of a courtyard range on a moated site.
Probably C16 extended in circa C17 and remodelled in C18 and C20. Coursed lime- stone with ashlar dressings, rendered front and back; with plain tile roof with stone caped gable ends; east end coursed iron stone rubble, extended in brick and with thatched roof with gable ends. Brick gable end stacks.
PLAN: The earlier west range was originally the south side of a range of buildings around a courtyard within a moat. It was probably wholly or partly two storeys and open to the roof and converted into a house in the C18. The circa C17 extension on the right (east) end appears to have been extended again and converted into a two room plan cottage in the C18. Rear wings added in C20.
EXTERIOR: two storey four window original range to left and one storey and attic two window cottage extension on right. C20 casements. Late C20 conservatory on right of original range and blocked central doorway on right hand range. The original range has ashlar buttress at the corners with weathering and a carved stone gable kneeler. C20 gable-ended brick wing at rear of original range.
INTERIOR: Original range, the smaller right hand room has some large unchamfered joists exposed and large fireplace with cambered chamfered timber bressumer; and five-bay roof with large tie-beam trusses, straight collars, clasped side purlins and complete set of coupled rafters. The cottage extension has chamfered axial beam in right hand room with runout stops, large fireplace with boxed-in bressumer; attics ceiled but large waney side purlins exposed; winder stairs between rooms.
SOURCE: A circa C18 Boughton Park Estate map (said to have been drawn by the Second Duke of Montagu) shows the moat and a complete range of buildings around the courtyard. (Circa C18 Boughton Park Estate Map).
