Description
Manor Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-framed farmhouse that survives with two bays. The exterior is covered in colourwashed roughcast, and it has an old clay tile roof. The building is one storey with attics and features two hipped dormers. The ground floor has modern casement windows and a lean-to porch. At the rear, there are two 18th-century brick-faced wings, with the right-hand wing being slightly taller. Both wings are colourwashed and have clay tile roofs, with the left-hand wing featuring a cat-slide roof. A new main wing was added to the south end facing the road in the 19th century. This addition is made of colour-washed brick, has a clay tile roof hipped to the right side, and is two storeys tall with all 20th-century windows and a hipped roof porch.
