Description

Manor Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse located on Sherborne Road, dated 1660, with a 18th-century rear range and 20th-century restoration. The building features coursed rubble-stone walls and roofs made of stone slate and slate, with stone gable copings and moulded kneelers. There are 20th-century brick stacks at the gable ends and parallel ridges. The farmhouse is two storeys high and has three windows, along with an additional window in an outbuilding. The windows have hollow-chamfered stone mullions and separate returned labels on the ground floor. The window openings contain 20th-century metal casements and rectangular leaded lights. At the center, there is a gabled stone porch, also from the 20th century, featuring a plank door. An incised stone lintel with the date is reset above the porch. The gable ends have 2-light mullions with separate labels above, extending to the attic. The front wall facing the road consists of coursed rubble-stone walls topped with ashlar coping stones, ramping to a central gateway and a side gateway, and it curves for 65 meters.
