1 ‘The Old Manor’ was never a manor house. In a deed of 1720 it is shown as Vine Cottage. It probably dated from the 15th Century.
2 Dated to 1490 with timberframe and plaster and painted brick, though the building is generally of the late 16th century. Originally L-shaped, with sandstone foundations, it has a later gabled porch to centre with side ballustrades. The central stack is of stone, two stories. Fenestration is modern. A small and simple but attractive house in good condition. It has small modern additions on the west and south sides, but these are rather tasteful.
3 The house is in excellent condition.
