Description
Manor Farmhouse and farm buildings is a house, likely built in the mid-18th century, with a late 19th-century wing attached. To the right, there is a range of late 19th-century farm buildings. The structure is made of coursed, squared rubble and features a gable-ended slate roof with stone kneelers and copings. There are ashlar stacks positioned along the ridge. The original house is in an L-shape, has two storeys, and displays irregular window arrangements. It features 2-light casements, some with glazing bars and some without. The original entrance is a plank door set in a heavy frame. The 19th-century front of the house is symmetrical, with two storeys and three bays, including 4-part sashes and a four-panel door beneath a wooden, gabled porch with shaped barge-boards. The farm building range is single storey with a loft, featuring 20th-century sliding double doors and irregular fenestration, including two gabled loft doors on the right and slit ventilators. Inside, the 18th-century section of the house has shallow chamfered ceiling beams and some cast iron grates.
