GV II*
Manor House, early C17, C18 and later. Brick, with tiled roof. Two storeys and attic. Central block of 3 bays with cross wings both ends, and stair in right re-entrant angle at rear. Further service wing on left. Main facade to west, remodelled mid C18 with entrance in large glazed porch of c1920. Twelve-paned sashes early C20 with gauged brick lintels, extended up at centre to form residual flush key. Roofs hipped and tall panelled brick stacks. Centre block and left wing have deeply chamfered cross beams. Central hall saloon has interesting stone fireplace c1600 with fascia carved with grotesques and foliage. Fine stair around well with twisted balusters, extending to attic level. C17 panelling, probably from hall, refixed on first floor landing. Main reception rooms in right (south) wing have inlaid marble, and marble and wood fireplaces of mid C18, possibly imported, also some on first floor. The house is probably on the site of the Domus Optima noted in Domesday Book, and later a manor of the Bishops of Salisbury. (VCH X 194)
