Description
Manor House Farmhouse is a mid-18th century farmhouse that may have been enlarged later. It is constructed of brick and features a slate roof with chimneys on the ridge and at the right gable. The building has a double pile plan consisting of three bays, which may have originally been two bays with a third added on the left.
There is a stone band at the first floor and a brick band at the second floor level. The entrance door is offset to the right, and there are three ground floor windows and four first floor windows, all with slightly arched heads that are one and a half bricks deep. The windows, except for those in the first bay, alternate between red and brown bricks, and all have wooden cross-framed casements.
On the rear wall, there are four similar windows, a narrow stairlight on two levels, and a single-storey porch with a stone flagged roof. A straight joint can be seen at the junction of the first and second bays. The gables feature attic windows, with the right gable having a three-light sliding sash window.
