Description
North Manor Farmhouse is a house, originally dating from the 17th century, with alterations and a 19th-century extension forming a wing, and now used as a separate dwelling. The original part of the house is brick, although there are traces of a timber frame, and has a roof covered with Swithland slate. The 19th-century wing is also brick and has a modern concrete tiled roof. Both sections are two stories high. The older part has a side entrance on the west side, and a three-light casement window on each floor in that gable. A dove cote is set into the apex of the gable. The east gable has a lower three-light casement, and two lights above with a wide wood mullion dividing them. Inside, there is an exposed tie beam and truss above. A gabled dormer is on the rear, with part of the wall plate and one main post visible. A rubble plinth is present at the rear, and there is a side wall stack; the flue projects through the roof slope rather than the ridge. A small, single-story 19th-century outbuilding is also present. The interior of the older part of the house features moulded cross beams and chamfered joists on the ground floor, with cambered tie beams and inclined struts to the main roof trusses. Upper lime floors remain. The 19th-century front wing has two units with a central doorway having a cambered brick head, and a canted bay to its left on the east side; there are two and three-light casements above. A gable end stack is also part of the 19th-century wing.
