The Manor Inn, while comprehensively renovated and altered to ground floor in the late twentieth century to accommodate a larger commercial space, retains much of its original form. The house is of some social and historic significance, representing a component of the continued development and expansion of the historic core of Naas in the late nineteenth/early twentieth centuries. Originally built as a one of a pair with the building immediately to north-east (11814022/KD-19-14-22), the building has a prominent impact on the streetscape, with a roofline that soars above the neighbouring ranges. Little of the building’s original features and materials survive intact, with the exception of the slate roof having cast-iron rainwater goods, and the rendered architraves to the openings to upper floors – the replacement fenestration to first floor aimed to replicate the original models, and this might be continued throughout the remainder in the future. The building is of importance for continuing the established streetline of Main Street South.
