SJ 48 SE HALE C.P. CHURCH END

4/8 No.21 (The Manor House)

28.5.58 II*

Former vicarage mid C17 refaced and improved circa 1700 as the Manor
House. Very fine symmetrical facade of weathered brown bricks with
red sandstone dressing. 2½ storeys and 5 bays. Giant rusticated
pilasters to centre bay surmounted by pediment with carved panel,
matching pilasters form the quoins. 6-panel door framed by Corinthian
columns supporting a richly ornamental swan-neck pediment. The first
floor central window is flanked by Corinthian pilasters supported on
large moulded consoles. Ground and first floor windows are sash and
there are blind oval windows to the second floor, all in moulded stone
frames. There is a heavy eaves cornice and balustraded parapet.
Interior: The Entrance Hall has full height panelling with fluted
pilasters and a staircase with carved brackets, twisted balusters and
low panelling to staircase wall. A secondary staircase has shaped
flat balusters. This internal joinery is thought to date with the
facade alterations.
