Description

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century, with a later 17th-century extension to the right and alterations from the early 19th century. It is constructed of uncoursed and coursed limestone rubble, topped with a gabled concrete tile roof and featuring stone end and ridge stacks finished in brick. The building has a three-unit plan that extends to an L-plan with a rear right wing. It stands two storeys high with an attic and has a seven-window range.

The front features a mid-19th-century bracketed hood over an early 18th-century six-panelled door set in a chamfered wood frame, complete with an overlight. There are jewel-stopped timber lintels above the door and to the right, while the left side has timber lintels over early 19th-century six- and eight-pane sash windows. Above the door is half of an early 17th-century pargetted strapwork panel. The roof includes gabled dormers. At the rear, there are late 17th-century two- and one-light chamfered wood-mullioned windows, with similar jewel-stopped timber lintels and sashes on the rear right wing. There are also 19th-century one-storey service wings at the rear.

Inside, the left side features early 18th-century two-panelled doors. The room on the left has stone flag floors, a chamfered beam with meat hooks, and a chamfered doorframe with bar stops. Stop-chamfered beams are present throughout the house. The hall to the right of the centre contains an early 18th-century straight-flight staircase at the rear, with turned balusters set on a closed string, and there are 17th-century winder stairs to the right. The room to the rear right has an early 18th-century moulded cornice and bolection-moulded panelling. On the first floor, part of an early 18th-century panelled dado is visible in the rear right room, along with an early 18th-century two-panelled door to the winder stairs on the right and a central timber-framed partition. The attic features butt-purlin roofs with collar trusses at the centre and stop-chamfered doorframes at the rear of the stack.
