Description
Moor Court is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, likely with earlier origins. It features random bond brick construction, with Flemish bond brick and flared headers on the front of the left wing and rear. The side wings have been partly refaced in early 19th century brick. The building has a gabled roof covered with old tiles, a brick stack at the left end with stone quoins and a rebuilt octagonal flue, as well as brick stacks at the right end and internally. The layout is H-shaped, with two storeys and a five-window range. The fenestration consists of a 1:3:1 arrangement for the central hall and flanking wings. There is a flat brick arch over a mid-19th century four-panelled door, which has two glazed panels and is accompanied by a mid-19th century cast-iron porch, located to the left of centre. To the right of centre, there is a segmental arch over a plank door with an overlight. Flat brick arches are present over 20th century casements, and there are blocked segmental-arched windows. A raised storey band is also visible. The rear left gable displays an exposed queen-post truss, and there is a 20th century rear outshut.
Inside, the farmhouse features cased beams and a full set of chamfered and stopped beams in the rear left room. There is a quarter-turn staircase in the rear right wing. The right wing also has a ribbed door and a three-bay queen-post roof with clasped purlins. Much of the 19th century plasterwork conceals details that are likely to be of interest. Moor Court is situated within an early medieval moated enclosure.
