 Cullompton Manor House is a grade II * listed building with sections built in 1603 ( dated panel and initials TT for Thomas <unk> on the top corner of the front of the house ) and 1718 ( on a lead cistern head of a drainpipe , are the letters ( L ) S / <unk> ( R ) and the date 1718 ) . It was originally a private residence and now forms part of the Manor House Hotel . It has a jettied half timbered front with four gables and stone end walls with upper windows on carved brackets . It was probably built in the sixteenth century but was refurbished in 1603 for Thomas <unk> , a clothier . The original structure consisted only of the front part , in which there were three rooms and a passage on the ground floor , three rooms opening into each other on the floor above , and above again . The front room on the left was the former hall with large oak panels of the Queen Anne period , and a moulded and beamed ceiling . Part of an earlier newel stair which descended to the hall or kitchen survives above a back staircase . The house was remodelled in 1718 for William <unk> . At the front of the building is a hooded shell porch of the early 18th century supported on pilasters and the back of house is also early 18th century of red and blue brick , with windows with thick glazing bars beneath a hipped slate roof with coved eaves . It was given the name of The Manor House in 1850 by J. S. Upcott who owned the property at that time . During World War II it was requisitioned by the army and used to billet officers . The adjacent house , <unk> , was originally a separate residence but was bought by the owners of the Manor House Hotel and incorporated into the hotel in the 1980s .
