Description

Westwood Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early to mid-18th century. It is constructed of flint rubble with brick dressings and vertical bands, topped with an old tile roof and featuring brick stacks. The building has a T-plan layout with a left cross wing and stands two storeys high. The three-window range on the right side has a flat hood over a mid-19th century six-panelled door, with segmental arches above 20th-century two-light casements and flat arches over 20th-century first-floor casements. The roof is gabled and half-hipped, with lateral stacks that include a rear left projection for a bread oven. There is a later 18th-century outshut at the rear right. Inside, the farmhouse features chamfered beams and joists, and there is a brick fireplace to the right. The attic has not been inspected. A 20th-century extension in a similar style and materials is located at the front of the left cross wing.
