Description

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates from the 17th century and later. It features a rendered timber frame with a colourwashed brick side addition that is not of special interest. The building has a thatched roof and stands two storeys high. The facade includes a central 20th-century front door, a single-storeyed canted bay with a flat roof on the east side, and a 20th-century three-light metal-framed window on the west side. On the first floor, there are two late 19th-century sash windows, each with two vertical glazing bars per sash, along with a small central two-light casement window. The 18th-century gable end has a stack on the west side, while the original stack on the east gable end features two interconnecting angled shafts. Inside, the farmhouse retains original chamfered bridging joists.
