Description
Manor House is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with alterations from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. It is constructed of squared limestone rubble, featuring ashlar quoins and dressings, and has slate roofs with raised stone coped gables and kneelers. The building has four pairs of stacks, including two gable and two ridge stacks, with the ridge stacks having three diagonally set shafts.
The front of the house is two storeys high and has a three-bay layout. It features a timber eaves board and a central half-glazed door that is framed by an early 19th-century plastered wooden surround, supporting a narrow moulded hood. This door is flanked by single 20th-century glazing bar casements set in 19th-century openings with facetted lintels. On the first floor, there are three glazing bar casements in 17th-century double chamfered surrounds with cornices.
In the right-hand gable, there is a 20th-century window set within a 17th-century moulded stone architrave that has a pulvinated frieze and cornice; the original window would have had two lights. The rear of the house features a two-storey, four-bay front arranged in a 2:1:1 pattern, with the third bay being deeply recessed and separately gabled, including a garret. The original 17th-century central chamfered stone surround for the doorway is now blocked and replaced by a 20th-century entrance porch.
To the left of the rear are two glazing bar sashes, and to the right, there is one similar sash. The ground floor windows retain their 17th-century stone surrounds with moulded cornices. On the first floor, above the earlier doorway, a 17th-century window surround and cornice are visible, now superseded by an off-centre glazing bar sash with a small 20th-century light to the right. To the left are two early 18th-century glazing bar sashes occupying enlarged 17th-century stone window surrounds, with the cornices remaining. To the right is a single 20th-century glazing bar sash with a 17th-century surround but a 20th-century lintel. At the apex of the central bay is a smaller glazing bar sash in a former two-light 17th-century window, with the upper stool for a mullion still in place.
Inside, the house retains one fireplace with a pulvinated frieze and a dentillated cornice. There is an early 19th-century niche in the right-hand room, along with moulded cornices throughout and high beamed ceilings.
