Interior: The higher end may have been the hall, it is still single storey and has gallery ( ) over the cross passage with reset staircase with turned balusters, moulded handrail and closed string. Also in the hall is a small shell-shaped granite bowl reset in the back wall - and said to be possibly a holy water stoup. There is a squint from the lower room to the doorway. The kitchen also at the lower end has a plain chamfered granite chimneypiece with flat head. Hemerdon was a Domesday Manor.
