The ground floor room immediately to the east of the stack has an exposed timber ceiling with joists set on edge, in the room above is a ceiling of similar quality with the joists set flat, an unusual combination. The 2 rooms to the east of the stack have been made into one. Staircase beside the chimney- stack. Side purlin roof plastered within the attics. Several upper doors made of reused Jacobean panelling, one with cock's head hinges. Adjoining the east end of the building, a mid C19 crosswing in flint and red brick, with weatherboarding to the upper part of the gable and an upper door; apparently a granary or hayloft. This is the stable block to the Manor House and has a double doorway and various stable doors facing east. The Manor House itself is not included.
