Description

Manor House Farmhouse is an early 18th-century house located on the east side of Main Street in Burton Overy. It is constructed of red brick and features a 20th-century plain tile roof with a rebuilt brick ridge at the center, left end, and rear stacks. A brick band runs along the building. The house has two storeys and includes five 2-light wooden mullion and transom windows. The central entrance has a wooden doorcase with a segmental open pediment supported by brackets, leading to a six-panelled door. To the right, there is a two-storey wing that was originally a single storey and was raised in the 19th century, topped with a tar-covered Welsh slate hipped roof. The wing features a 2/2 sash window with a 4-pane fixed light above it. All ground floor windows are adorned with brick cambered lintels.
