RYLSTONE CHURCH LANE
SD 9658-9758
(north side)
15/77 Manor Cottage
II
House. Mid C17 with probably early C19 alterations. Coursed squared rubble
to front, uncoursed rubble to side and rear, graduated stone slate roof. 2
storeys, 3 bays. Quoins. C20 board door left, in plain stone surround.
Two 4-light recessed chamfered mullion windows to ground floor, that to
left having a king mullion between the first and second lights, string
course over all. First floor: a central 4-pane sash in sawn stone surround
flanked by 2-light recessed chamfered mullion windows, the material reused.
End stacks. Right return: a blocked recessed chamfered mullion window to
first floor. Interior not inspected at resurvey. The building facade was
probably extensively rebuilt in the early C19; the king mullion was central
tc the window originally, suggesting that the C17 house was either 1 bay
larger, or had an entrance in the gable end; the left 2 lights being removed
to allow room for the later door. The eaves were raised when the house was
reroofed, probably at the sane time. Similar to Yew Tree Farmhouse (q.v.).
