Description
Manor Farmhouse, a malthouse, and garden railings date primarily from the early 17th century, with additions from the mid-18th century. The farmhouse is timber framed with brick infill on a sandstone plinth, with red brick additions, and has a plain tile roof. Brick ridge stacks are also present. It is a two-bay lobby-entry plan house aligned north-south, facing west, with a C18 extension or rebuilding of what was originally a 17th-century bay on the north side. A malthouse is attached at a right angle to the northwest.
The west front features the 17th-century range to the right and the malthouse to the left. The 17th-century range has close studding to the ground floor and above, with two square panels to the eaves and straight braces. It has two 20th-century casement windows and a blocked cellar window. A central boarded and battened door has a shaped head. The malthouse has dentilated eaves and three bays with segmental-headed windows containing 2-light wooden frames rebated for fixed panes, along with boarded doors to the left and the right. Cast-iron railings enclose a front garden.
The east front has an 18th-century extension to the right with a gable and attic lighting, featuring three casement windows with segmental heads. The original 17th-century range is set back to the left, with a single-storey lean-to link in the re-entrant angle, above which is a large gable window.
Internally, the farmhouse has chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, a 17th-century open fireplace with a moulded bresummer, and ceilings displaying ceiling beams. The malthouse retains its fireboxes and perforated floors above.
