Manor House Farmhouse

This is a small manor house, now a farmhouse, dating to the later 17th century, with an earlier addition and subsequent alterations. It is constructed of magnesian limestone rubble with quoins, and has stone slate roofs. The building has a T-shaped plan, consisting of a three-unit front range, a rear stair turret, and a rear wing added at an angle with the turret, and subsequently extended.

The front range features a plinth and dripcourses above both ground and first-floor levels. The asymmetrical facade has three blocked cellar windows, a window in the centre of each floor on the left half, and two windows on each floor on the right half, with a doorway offset to the left of the centre. The doorway has a six-panelled wooden door with an overlight containing glazing bars. The windows were originally mullioned and transomed with eight lights, but have been altered and replaced with wooden mullions and transoms, the left-hand windows now reduced to six lights. The gables have similarly altered windows: the left gable has ten lights on each floor and five in the attic, and the right gable has eight lights on each floor, with a four-light stone mullion window in the attic (with outer lights blocked).

The rear of the front range has a three-storey gabled stair turret with a blocked cross-window and a two-light window in its side wall, and an altered cross-window and a two-light window in the gable wall. The turret partly covers an extruded chimney stack to the right, situated next to an altered cross-window at ground floor and a blocked two-light window above (with a wooden lintel). The rear wing, added at the angle with the stair turret, features an eight-light window with flush mullions, transoms, and glazing bars, along with a lean-to in the angle with the main range (formerly a water tank). Two chimneys are located at the rear wall of the main range of this part, one on the ridge of the wing.

Inside, an entrance passage leads to a rear staircase. To the left of the staircase is a parlour with full-height 17th-century muntin and rail panelling on all sides, and a richly carved overmantel in a Renaissance style, along with a moulded plaster cornice (a recently replaced plaster beam is now supported by a steel joist). The other three rooms in this part of the house have matching panelled wainscots. The dog-legged staircase has a closed string, slim turned balusters, and a ramped handrail.
