Description

Manor Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse constructed of colour-washed brick with a slate roof. The building is two storeys high, with a slightly projecting centre bay. It features a pilastered doorcase with a panelled door and glazed panels above. On the ground floor, there are two sash windows with glazing bars, while the first floor has three 19th-century casement windows. A wide brick string course runs at first floor level and continues through one-storey extensions on either side of the facade. To the right, there is a single bay with a sash window as the main elevation and a flat roof behind a parapet. To the left, there are two bays, one with a 20th-century casement window and a hipped roof behind a parapet. The main block has a low hipped roof with a chimney positioned to the right of centre.
