Description
Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely served as the original manor house, dating from 1679 as indicated by a datestone. It was remodelled, probably in the early 19th century. The building is constructed of coursed squared limestone rubble with some wooden lintels and features a plain-tile roof, partly old, with rubble and brick stacks. It has an L-plan layout and consists of two storeys and one storey plus an attic.
The front of the house has been remodelled and features three windows. There is a central four-panel door below a nine-pane casement, with 18-pane horizontal-sliding sashes in the outer bays on both floors. All openings are framed with wide render architraves, and the central first-floor window is flanked by re-set stones inscribed with "1679" and "S/HE". A gable stack is located to the right.
The left end of the building leads to a lower long rear wing, which contains an additional entrance and casements with stop-chamfered lintels. This wing also features two-light gabled dormers and, in the end bay, a half-dormer loft door above a garage door. At the rear of the main range, in the angle with the rear wing, there is a gabled stair projection that includes a small casement.
A 17th-century double stack with a rubble base and diagonal brick shafts rises from the lower ridge at the junction of the ranges, while the lower wing has a large ridge stack made of much old narrow brick. The interior has not been inspected.
