Manor Farmhouse

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 18th century, with alterations and extensions made in the early to mid-19th century, and further changes to the front in the late 19th or early 20th century. It is constructed of Flemish bond red brick, with some tile-hanging and an extension featuring flared headers. The roof is covered with plain clay tiles and has gabled ends, supported by brick axial and gable-end stacks.

The original house has a two-room plan with a wide cross-passage hall at the center and a stair tower at the back. In the early to mid-19th century, a third room and a room in a wing at the front were added, creating an L-shaped layout. In the late 19th or early 20th century, two two-storey bays were built on the front of the original house, with a porch in between.

The exterior features two storeys and an attic, with an asymmetrical five-bay east front and a gabled wing projecting on the right. The original house is on the left, showcasing two gabled two-storey bays with three-light stone windows and tile-hung gables. There is a panelled and glazed door situated between the bays under a flat-roof porch supported by thin Tuscan columns, along with a 16-pane sash window above and to the right of the bay. The wing on the right contains two small three-light casements with leaded panes. The rear, or west side, has a four-window range with various sashes featuring glazing bars, two canted bay windows with 12-pane sashes, a brick platband, and a tall tile-hung stair tower on the right with a hipped roof and 12-pane sashes, along with a gabled dormer at the center.

Inside, the original early 18th-century house has two rooms with cyma cornices and 19th-century reeded ceiling borders. The south room includes an 18th-century arched china cupboard with shaped shelves and a Victorian marble chimneypiece. The hall features a chamfered axial beam without stops, while the kitchen in the wing has chamfered cross-beams. The property contains 18th and 19th-century joinery, including panelled doors and window shutters, as well as an 18th-century dog-leg stair in the stair tower, which has square newels, a moulded handrail, and a balustrade in the attic that retains its wavy splat balusters. The attics are ceiled, but the purlins are exposed, and the timber-framed north end gable can be seen from the roof space of the 19th-century extension.
