Description
Kingsbury Manor Farmhouse is a building from around 1700 that has been extensively restored. It has an irregular shape, with the left section featuring two storeys and an attic, and two sash windows with glazing bars set in near-flush, moulded frames. The taller right section also has two storeys and an attic, with two windows of a similar style, although the ground and first-floor windows on the right are made up of three lights. The high-pitched, tiled roof has two hipped gables at the front and two square dormers. There are steps leading to a renewed door that features a moulded architrave and a bracketed cornice hood. Additionally, there is a two-storey, one-window extension on the left side.
