Description
Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates back to the late Medieval period, with alterations made in the 17th and 19th centuries. It is constructed of random rubble stone and features a hipped tiled roof with a hip on the left side and an axial brick stack. The building has a two-storey, two-window west front. There is a six-panelled door located in a gabled stone porch lean-to extension, with two 9-pane bottom-hinged windows to the left and a 20th-century tripartite window to the right. On the first floor, there is a 2-light casement window to the left and a 3-light ovolo-mullioned casement window to the right.
To the right, there is a wing that includes a large stone stack with offsets, 20th-century casements, and a coped verge. The right return features 20th-century replacement casements, one 2-light 16th-century window with Tudor-arched chamfered lights, and more 20th-century casements on the first floor, which is made of English bond brick. The rear of the building has 20th-century casements.
Inside, there is a through passage with a badly worn moulded stone pointed doorway to the left, leading to a room used for storage, which was likely once used for services. The former 'hall' and parlour fireplaces have been blocked, but very deep chamfered beams are retained, some of which are boxed in. There is also notable joinery, including doors with two fielded panels. The first floor was not accessible during the survey in January 1987, but it is likely that there is a good roof in this house. The plan and the survival of the pointed door to the services suggest it was originally a Medieval house, although no further evidence is available.
