Cottage, formerly stable range associated with No. 108 (Old Manor House)
restored and extended c.1740 and mid-C20. Red and burnt brick, Flemish bond
with steeply pitched tiled roof, plain eaves cornice and tumbled end parapet
to road carried on kneelers. Brick ridge stack rebuilt. End to road. One
storey and attic. Originally the principal openings were in the north wall.
These have been blocked and the principal front is now on the south side.
Four gable dormers. Scattered mid C20 casements with small panes. The end
to the road has the initials M.H. (Mary Hatton) in burnt brick headers partly
removed by one of two C19, twelve pane hung sashes. The north wall has
diaper pattern brickwork and three original window and stable door openings
in segmental arches. These openings are now blocked. The stables were
probably built by Dame Mary Hatton, widow of Sir John Hatton, who retired to
The Old Manor House after the death of her husband in 1740.
