Description
Allington Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse from the mid-18th century that incorporates parts of a 17th-century manor. It is built from ashlar and rubble stone and features a stone-tiled roof. The building has moulded coped gables and corniced ashlar stacks at the end walls. It is two storeys tall with an attic, and the ashlar front has a raised eaves band and a string course. There are two hipped dormers and a four-window range on the first floor, consisting of flush chamfered two-light mullion windows. In the center, there is a flush keyed oval light with finely carved 17th-century Prynne arms above it.
The ground floor was altered after 1840 for the Grittleton estate, featuring two stone-tiled canted bays with large cross-windows at the front and a central coped gabled porch. The inner doorway is moulded and has a square frame. At the south end, there is a rubble stone wing with a coped gable and a north end stack that connects to the main range stack. This wing includes one window range of sashes in flush surrounds. The south end wall has a three-light recessed mullion window with cyma and hollow chamfer mouldings, along with a two-light flush hollow-chamfer-moulded window above it.
The rear of the farmhouse has two gables with a central hipped roof infill between them. The left gable features a four-light recessed moulded mullion window with a sash above, while the right gable has a much-eroded three-light mullion window, a two-light recessed moulded mullion window, and single lights on each side above. The center of the rear has a moulded flush doorcase with an oak plank door that comes from a former house dated 1612, along with a two-light chamfered window to the left and a three-light flush cyma-moulded window above.
An addition made after 1840 is located at the northeast angle, featuring coped gables to the east and west, flush quoins, and two-light plain mullion windows on each floor at the west end. There is also a 19th-century brick range with a slate roof to the east.
