Description

Manor Farmhouse, along with an attached barn and granary, dates from the early 18th century and has seen later alterations and additions. The buildings are constructed of red brick and feature a plain tile roof with brick ridge stacks. The farmhouse is located on the left, the barn in the center, and the granary on the right, with the structures descending in height from left to right.

The farmhouse is two storeys tall with dentilled eaves and consists of four bays. It has casement windows with segmental heads, and an early 19th-century bow window to the right of the center. There are half-glazed doors to the left of the center and to the right, with the left door featuring a panelled doorcase and the right door having a large lean-to porch.

The barn is a single storey with dentilled eaves and has two roof bays. It features a tall blocked doorway to the right with a segmental head, an inserted entrance to the left, and one row of ventilation holes in the left-hand bay just below the eaves level.

The granary is two storeys high and consists of one bay. It has a casement window with a segmental head at the center of the ground floor, two tiers of ventilation holes above (with the upper tier blocked), and a row of ventilation loops immediately below the eaves level.
