Description
The Old House, originally known as Old Manor Farmhouse, dates back to 1781 and is located on Longbridge. The building features two identical, two-storey plus attic, gabled cross wings from around 1600, constructed with close set studding and colourwashed brick infilling. The lower storey has false framing in cement, painted to match the upper sections. The sash windows are set in cased frames, likely added around 1830. The structure between the end gables was rebuilt around the same time, featuring a large, slightly projecting gable of colourwashed brickwork that detracts from the overall appearance of the south elevation. The majority of the rear elevations, which face the farmyard, are constructed with 17th-century square timber framing and red brick infilling. The building also has 19th-century brick chimneys and is covered with machine tiles. The Old House, along with the West Barn, is part of a group.
