Manor Farm House

Manor Farm House is a house dated 1764 on the doorway of the front range, with a rear range dating from around 1700. The front range features painted squared limestone, a Welsh slate roof, and rebuilt brick chimney stacks. The rear range is constructed of narrow handmade brick in random bond with sandstone quoins, squared rubble return walls, a pantiled roof, and a brick chimney stack. The building has a double-range plan under a two-span roof and is two storeys high with a three-bay front.

The central door, which has been replaced, is set in an ogee-moulded stone surround with run-out stops and a shaped top feature dated 1746. The ground floor has replaced four-pane sash windows with projecting sills and keyed lintels. The steeply-pitched roof has slightly-swept eaves, and the gables are coped with parapets featuring shaped kneelers and end stacks.

The narrower two-storey, two-bay rear range consists of two builds. The earlier recessed right bay has a 12-pane stair window with a radial head and thick glazing bars, set in a raised tooled surround with a projecting moulded sill, impost blocks, and a keystone. It also features a cogged and dentilled stepped eaves band. The wider left bay has a rubble plinth and ashlar quoins, with two 12-pane sashes in stone architraves with projecting moulded sills. The continuous steeply-pitched roof has slightly-swept eaves and a central ridge stack with a cogged top band.

Inside, the rear range contains early 18th-century features, including a dogleg cut-string staircase with two flights plus a landing rail, turned balusters, and a wreathed-and-ramped handrail. There are several six-panel doors with L-hinges and three-panel reveals. One ground-floor room features fielded panelling on the north wall, fluted pilasters, a pair of three-panel cupboard doors, and a cornice, along with a large China cupboard with shaped shelves on the south wall and four-panel internal window shutters. The left first-floor room has a large stone fireplace with a moulded surround, pulvinated frieze, and corniced mantel. An addition on the right return of the front range is not of special interest.
