Description
Side elevation of Ickenham Manor, Long Lane, Ickenham, looking south-west. The two-storey detached house with attic rooms is timber-framed with brick cladding at the lower levels. It has steeply pitched tiled roofs and a large leaning chimney stack. There is a modern light fitting and lamp on the wall above the ground-floor level and discarded plasterboard is visible at ground level. Ickenham Manor, formerly known as Manor Farm or Ickenham Hall, is a Grade I listed, early seventeenth century, detached manor house; listing number 1080187. The former medieval moated house and estate was the ancestral home of the Shorediche family until the early nineteenth century. Scientific dating suggests the present house has some late fifteenth-century internal timbers with later alterations. During the World War II the estate was occupied by the British Army and was used in the early 1950s as a sports pavilion for employees of the General Post Office. It stood derelict until 1961 when Sir Peter Tizard took ownership. The house and estate are in private ownership today.
