Manor Farmhouse

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early to mid-17th century, incorporating elements of an earlier 16th-century timber-framed building on the same site. It is constructed of local red brick, using both English and Flemish bond patterns, with some reused medieval Barnack stone at the base of the east side stack. The main range is flanked by cross-wings to the east and west, with a gabled, rear stair turret and a two-storey addition to the south-west, likely added later in the 17th century.

The north-facing elevation has two storeys with attics. Both cross-wings feature stepped parapet gables with kneelers, and a plain plaster band with two courses of projecting bricks between the floors, along with a common brick plinth to the original ranges. Chamfered brick labels are found above most of the original windows. The east cross-wing has a large side stack with grouped diagonal shafts. This cross-wing contains a small, three-leaded attic window, a five-leaded-light casement window with wooden mullions at first floor, and a large five-leaded-light casement window with a transom at ground floor, similar to the early 18th-century rear windows. The main range has an original boarded door with a chamfered architrave, and an original eight-leaded-light casement window with a wooden frame and chamfered mullions set in a flat moulded brick arch. Above the door, there is an original two-light casement window, and to the left, a replacement 18th-century hung sash window with glazing bars. The west cross-wing has three horizontal sliding sashes with glazing bars in the attic, a three-light casement window set at a lower level on the first floor, and a four-light casement window at ground floor. The joists of the 16th-century jetty are plastered over. The main range has a large rear stack with two diagonal shafts.

The interior features moulded ceiling beams and sealed hearths, including one large cooking hearth in the east cross-wing. The original staircase, originally located in a turret behind the hall stack, has been rebuilt in the north-east of the hall, incorporating original newels with shaped heads. The staircase within the west wing is possibly original and rises to the attic floor. There is some reused panelling at the first floor, along with 18th-century doors and plank doors. An exposed frame of the earlier house is visible in the east wall, raised to the height of the cross-wing by 17th-century framed walls.
