Description

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1799, as indicated by datestones on the right return. The building features a chequered pattern of flint and limestone, a hipped tiled roof, and brick stacks. It is square in shape and has two storeys with five windows, all fitted with sash windows. The central entrance consists of four-panel double doors set within a pilastered porch, flanked by two 12-pane sashes with cambered heads. The first floor has five 6-pane sashes. The farmhouse has a moulded brick eaves cornice and brick quoins.

On the right return, there is a 6-pane sash window on the first floor, along with a 20th-century brick extension that has a hipped roof. Below the eaves of this extension are datestones featuring the name I. Flooks, the initials S.S., and the date 1799. The left return includes French windows, 20th-century casements, and 6-pane sashes. At the rear, there is a two-storey service wing with casement windows.

The interior reportedly features doors with six beaded panels in moulded architraves, a closed string staircase with stick balusters, a ramped handrail, and a Tuscan newel.
