Manor Farmhouse

Manor Farmhouse is an 18th-century house, altered in the early-to-mid 19th century with the addition of an “L” shaped extension to the east front and internal remodelling. A later brick extension exists to the north. The house is two storeys and has an attic, with a thatched roof and three brick chimneys. The west front is largely brick and slate, with a later extension to the left. It has three windows on the first floor, casement windows, and altered and irregular ground-floor windows. A modern glazed porch is in the center, and a modern box porch is to the right. There are two dormers cut into the thatch. The east front features an “L” shaped extension with four windows on the first floor, mostly three-light casement windows, and one window on a projecting wing. A large tiled lean-to covers most of the ground floor, with wide three-light, glazing bar casement windows flanking the entrance door. The gable end of the “L” wing has a large external chimney with brick quoins. The house is said to have a datestone marked “1770”. A mid-19th century curved chalk corner wall, approximately 3 feet high in the west and rising to 7 feet in the north, extends for about 19 yards to the east. A tile-capped sarsen wall, roughly 25 yards long and 6 feet high, faces the road to the southwest, linking to a similar wall of chalk rubble about 8 yards long.
