Description
Manor Farmhouse is a former farmhouse dating from the late 16th century and 17th century, with later additions. It features a timber frame that has been re-faced and extended in colour-washed brick, topped with a pantiled roof. The original house has been extended to the side, where a later cross wing was added. The building has two storeys with an attic and displays scattered modern casement windows with glazing bars, along with one sloping dormer. There is a moulded brick stringcourse on the 17th-century side extension and platbands on the cross wing. The house has one axial stack at the junction with the cross wing and a later stack on the rear wall of the original house. The cross wing gable shows tumbling in. Inside, there is a 17th-century stair leading from the first floor to the attic. The original house has a clasped purlin roof, while the extensions have butt-purlin roofs. Notably, there is a blocked three-light ovolo moulded mullion and transom window on the inside of the east gable of the cross wing.
