Description
Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse, largely dating from around 1600, with significant alterations in the late 17th century, the early and mid 18th century, and the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick with some blue brick diapering, rubble, and some rendered areas, retaining remains of a timber frame. The roof is covered in plain tiles and is hipped with gablets. External brick stacks are visible to the left and ridge, along with a single gable stack to the projecting wing.
The main front has a deep plinth of rubble, partly rendered. The original house was a 4-bay timber frame, now extended to 9 bays, with the left 6 bays dating from around 1600 and the right 3 bays from the mid 18th century. The central doorway has a panelled door and a glazing bar overlight, flanked by single bullseye windows with moulded brick surrounds. To the right is a tripartite glazing bar Yorkshire sash window, two glazing bar casements, and a doorway with a plank door. A single glazing bar casement is located to the left of the main doorway.
Two single-bay projecting wings are positioned to the left. The first, dated to the 19th century, has a coped parapet and a single glazing bar tripartite casement in the side wall, while the front wall features a single glazing bar Yorkshire sash window. The second wing, from the early 18th century, has a raised brick coped gable with kneeler and a single glazing bar casement. The side wall of this wing includes a single glazing bar casement, with a doorway and panelled door to the left. A blocked window opening is present in the far left bay of the main front. Above the main doorway is a similar bullseye window, with a glazing bar tripartite Yorkshire sash and a glazing bar casement to the right. A glazing bar Yorkshire sash window is to the left. A single glazing bar tripartite casement and a large circular light with decorative glazing bars are in the side wall of the projecting wing, with a single glazing bar casement in the front wall. The 18th-century wing features a glazing bar Yorkshire sash window and a single glazing bar casement in the side wall. A blocked opening is located in the far left bay of the main front. The attic has two gabled dormers with plain tile coverings; the one on the right has a tripartite casement and the one on the left has a glazing bar casement.
The interior retains many chamfered beams and posts, along with a stud panel in the attic. Other features include an axial chimney, fireplaces with bressumer beams, and largely re-used timbers.
