Description

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with 19th-century additions and alterations. It is constructed of timber framing and brick, partly rendered, and has a 20th-century pantile roof. The building retains the remains of four timber posts and features a first-floor band. It has a single gable and a single ridge stack, and is two storeys high plus garrets, with five unequal bays in a single range that includes a rear outshut. Most of the windows are 20th-century casements.

On the east front, to the left, there is a 19th-century flat-roofed brick porch with a flat arched opening and moulded eaves, which contains a panelled door with flanking lights. To the left of the porch is a blocked opening, and to the right are two casements and a door, all with segmental heads. Above, to the left, there is a blocked window, and to the right are two casements. The south gable features a single casement on each floor, while the north gable has a casement in the garret. To the right, there is a lower two-storey service wing with two bays. The left side of this wing has a blocked window, and to the right is a casement. Above, there are two blocked openings flanked by single casements.
