Gate arch approx. 30m. S of S front of Manor House
(Formerly listed as Manor House and gateway)

GV
II*

Gate arch and attached walls. Early C17. Limestone ashlar. Semi-circular stone
arch framed by widely spaced pairs of engaged fluted Doric columns on square
plinths with panelled fronts. Between the columns are panels of elaborate
strapwork. Modillions with foliated surrounds in the spandrels of the arch.
Entablature over with frieze decorated by alternate ox sculls and roundels and
cornice over. The centre is crowned by a semi-circular pediment with coat of
arms and finial on a square base. Small triangular pediments flanking with
similar finials. The gateway is backed by plain brickwork on the garden side
giving rise to the theory that it may have been the original porch to the Manor
House rebuilt in this position.
