Description
Manor Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse located on Broad Town Road in Broad Hinton. The building features a refacing of diaper brick with ashlar quoins and a stone rear wing, all topped with slate roofs. It is two storeys high with attics and has four bays. The left side has three bays that are symmetrical around a central through hall, with a glazed door set within an early 19th-century Roman Doric portico. A stone string runs along the building, and the windows are twelve-paned sashes, with tripartite arrangements on the ground floor and scalloped blind boxes. There are two segmental-headed dormers with six panes each. The right end bay, beyond the stack, also features twelve-paned sashes and some blocked windows. The gables are raised and coped, with gable stacks.
The third bay includes a mid-18th-century one-bay rear wing that is stone-tiled and has a gable stack. The left bay has a three-bay stone rear wing with a date stone on the gable, which is oval within a square and initialled A / T S 17*3. There is also a lower bay with a raised gable that contains reset carving and a mounting block. The rear porch has reset stones that are initialled. It is believed that the farmhouse is situated on the site of Hinton Vase Manor and may incorporate stonework from the gatehouse of Sir William Wroughton's house, which was built around 1550 and destroyed around 1645.
