Manor Farmhouse And Manor Farm Barn

Manor Farmhouse and Manor Farm Barn is a house, now divided into two occupations, with an attached barn. The house is dated 1666 and was partly rebuilt around 1782 when the barn was added. It is constructed of hammer-dressed stone with dressed quoins and has stone slate roofs. The house, located on the left, is two storeys high and features a two-cell central through-passage plan with a rear kitchen wing. The central doorway has composite jambs and a chamfered surround with a lintel dated 1666. There is another inserted door to the right with monolithic jambs. The windows are double-chamfered mullioned windows with a king-mullion; the first cell has a 6-light window on each floor, while the second cell has a 3-light window with a 6-light window above. Above the door, set under the eaves, is a carved stone featuring the double-cross of the Knights Templars, with a datestone above it initialed and dated "B. F. 1782". The house has coped gables with kneelers, a central 17th-century ridge stack, and another stack added to the right gable, likely during the 1782 rebuild. The rear of the house has two bays of windows with three lights and two lights on each floor, along with a doorway featuring tie-stone jambs. Attached at right angles is a rear wing with a four-light window and a three-light window above, and there is a stack at the junction of the two ranges.

Inside, the house has stop-chamfered scarf-jointed spine beams and evidence of a former bressumer. The rear kitchen features stop-chamfered spine beams and floor joists with ogee stops, along with a large fireplace that has monolithic jambs and stop-chamfered surrounds. The late 18th-century queen-post roof has a collar supported by a fish-bone king-post.
