5/11 The Manor House

- II

House. Early C18 or earlier origins, remodelled early C19. Red brick in
Flemish bond, colourwashed, slate roofs. 2 storeys and attics, 3 bays.
Central direct entry plan with (originally) two rear wings, now infilled.
Corner pilasters. Centre bay breaks forward slightly: ground floor has
glazed door under fanlight with radial glazing in Tuscan porch flanked by
narrow 10-pane windows. Tripartite sashes with glazing bars, under flat
gauged brick arches, to right and to left. First floor: tripartite sashes
to left and to right, 20-pane sash over door. Hipped roof and axial stacks
to right and left rear wings. Three raised gables to rear. Interior: early
C18 cut-string stair with barley-sugar and fluted balusters, ramped moulded
handrail, and ramped dado rail over raised and fielded panelling. Early C19
fireplace to room to left of main elevation: early C19 doorcases throughout.
A building in this position shown on a survey of 1732 is of the same plan as
this house and is almost certainly to be identified with it.
