Description
Longworth Manor is a farmhouse that has been converted into a house. It dates from the late 17th century and was remodelled and extended around 1910. The building is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with limestone ashlar dressings and features a stone slate roof with brick stacks. It has a double-depth plan, is two storeys tall with an attic, and has a six-window range. The original five-window range includes an ashlar lintel and quoins surrounding 20th-century two-light casements, along with a blocked central door and a one-light window to the right. There is an ashlar storey band and four gabled roof dormers.
To the right, there is a 20th-century extension that matches the original in materials and style, featuring a two-storey porch with a square-headed stone doorway and a moulded architrave leading to a plank door. The porch has a gabled roof with gable end and ridge stacks, and the early 20th-century porch includes an ashlar stack that is corbelled out from the side wall. The rear of the building has a nine-window range with timber lintels and ashlar quoins supporting early 20th-century casements and a plank door, along with two blocked 17th-century cellar windows.
Inside, there are 20th-century dog-leg stairs in a late 17th-century style located at the rear of the hall opposite the entry. A 17th-century stone fireplace can be found in the room to the left of the porch, while other interior features are from the early 20th century.
Additionally, there is a one-storey and attic structure attached to the left gable, which has a three-window range and is built from similar materials with a double-depth plan. This section features segmental and flat stone arches over two-light leaded casements and 20th-century doors. Steps to the left rise over dog kennels to a plain round-headed first-floor doorway. The rear has a six-bay arcade and a central gabled projection flanked by gabled dormers, along with a similar one-storey extension to the left gable wall.
