Manor Farmhouse And Attached Walls And Gatepiers To East And West

Manor Farmhouse, built probably in the mid 17th century, was extended and remodelled in the mid 19th century. It is constructed of squared coursed lias stone with a plain tile roof. Originally a two-unit plan, the farmhouse now has an irregular U-shape. The main front has two storeys and an attic, with a gabled cross-wing projecting to the right. The front features a six-window range. Four, two-light stone mullion windows on the first floor to the left are likely 17th century, with hood moulds and square label stops. Other windows are one-, two-, and three-light 19th-century, some with stone mullions. A 19th-century pointed-head doorway is located to the right of centre. Ashlar gable parapets and kneelers are present. Brick and stone stacks are situated at the ridge, with a lateral stack rising from a gablet to the far right. Two bays to the right represent 19th-century additions, with evidence of a straight joint at the first floor between the two builds. The left gable has three 17th-century stone mullion windows with hood moulds and square label stops. A leaded casement window with a wood lintel is on the ground floor to the right. A projecting gabled wing to the right of centre on the rear elevation is likely 17th or 18th century, remodelled in the 19th century. A gabled cross-wing to the right is 19th century. All windows on the rear elevation have 19th-century stone mullions. A square-headed doorway with a chamfered stone surround is probably 17th century. A 20th-century single-storey extension sits between the projecting wings. A wall attached to the east of the main front has a built-up coping and a gateway with 20th-century gates and square piers with ball finials, likely of late 17th or early 18th century origin. A similar pair of gatepiers, with moulded cornices, are attached to the wall to the west, enclosing the front garden, along with a 20th-century gate. A section of wall attached to the far west has a similar, truncated, gatepier and encloses part of the garden of Garden House. Inside, a room to the right of the entrance hall has 18th-century bolection moulded panelling, which was reset from a first-floor room. The kitchen has chamfered spine beams with run-out stops. The staircase is mid-19th century.
