Description

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse that has been converted into a house. It likely dates from the mid to late 16th century, with possible earlier origins, and has undergone various additions and alterations, including a probable former stable range from the late 17th to early 18th century on the left side and some remodeling in the 19th century.

The building features square panels of timber-framing, with remnants of close-studding visible on the ground floor to the right, set on a blue lias stone plinth with reddish brick nogging. The rear facade is entirely close-studded with reddish brick infill, while the right part is made of reddish brick and has a plain-tile roof. The interior includes wattle and daub infill.

The farmhouse has a three-unit plan with an L-shaped range to the left. It stands two storeys high and has four upper-floor windows. The entrance, located off-centre to the right, features a plank door within a moulded wood surround and is flanked by three-light casement windows, with a further two-light casement window to the left. The left range includes another casement window and a plank door, both under cambered arches. The upper floor has a mix of two- and three-light casement windows, most of which have lead cames. The roofs are gabled, with diagonal stacks and a ridge stack on the right side. The purlins are exposed on the right gable end.

Inside, there is extensive close-studding, particularly on the original left exterior wall, along with wattle and daub infill. The interior features stop-chamfered beams and a wood mullion window. An inglenook fireplace on the left side of the main stack has a bressumer beam with a deep chamfer, while a Tudor-arched stone fireplace is located on the right side. There are plank doors and a six-panel door, with stone flags on the ground floor and gypsum plaster floors on the first floor. Two bays of queen post roof trusses are exposed, along with the purlins. The ceiling on the ground floor has been raised.
