Description

Manor Farm Cottage is a former barn that has been converted into a detached house, dating from the early to mid-18th century, with alterations made in the mid-20th century. The building is constructed of random rubble limestone, featuring ashlar and rubble chimneys, and has a stone slate roof. It is two stories high with an attic, and a garage is incorporated at the south end. The north and south gable ends are plain, with the north end having attached outbuildings and a small round-headed slit vent in the south gable. The cottage has 20th-century inserted casements towards the center on each side, along with earlier timber casements with timber lintels towards the north end. On the east side, there are plank garage doors to the left with a timber lintel and a small casement above. Additionally, there are two gabled roof dormers on the east side and two chimneys mounted on the ridge. The interior has not been inspected.
