Manor Farmhouse

Manor Farmhouse is a house dating from the late 16th century. It is built of red brick with stone dressings and has an old clay tile roof. The original design was H-plan, but the south cross-wing has since been destroyed. The house has two storeys and attics, featuring stone banding at the first floor level and at the eaves of the cross-wing. The main block has a coved cornice.

The cross-wing includes two 2-light mullion and transom windows on both the ground and first floors, a 2-light mullioned window in the attic, and stone coping with a finial. The main block has a gabled central porch with stone coping and a finial, along with two 3-light mullion and transom windows on the ground and first floors. The rear of the house has similar window designs. There are substantial external chimney stacks on the north and rear elevations, with the north stack featuring four octagonal shafts and the rear stack having three, all topped with octagonal pots.

At the rear, there is a single-storey outhouse addition made of red brick and clay tile. Inside, the first floor of the main block was originally one room and has an elaborate plaster ceiling, which has been altered by some 20th-century partitioning. This ceiling likely dates from the early 17th century and features five quatrefoil panels in the middle, with the central panel displaying a coat of arms possibly belonging to Thomas Colby of London, who purchased the manor in 1566, or his descendants. Other main panels depict scriptural subjects, including The Fall, while the bordering panels contain a variety of devices, such as portraits, foliage, animals, birds, and grotesques. The cornice includes a frieze of putti and grapevine.
