Description
Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, marked as Barrington Farmhouse on the 6-inch Ordnance Survey map. It is constructed of coursed squared and finely dressed limestone and features a stone slate roof with ashlar stacks. The main body of the house has a rectangular plan, with a later rear extension that forms a 'T' shape, and lean-tos added to the sides of this extension.
The main body is two storeys high with an attic and has a symmetrical facade with a 1:3:1 window arrangement. The central gable is flanked by two stone-built dormers that are lit by bulls-eye windows with raised flat-chamfered surrounds. The outer bays have tall 3-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements, while the central three bays are lit by similar 2-light stone-mullioned casements, all featuring leaded panes. There are bands over the ground and first-floor windows with superimposed moulded hoods above each window. The central entrance has a 20th-century two-panel door set within a raised segmental-headed surround that includes a keystone extending up to interrupt the band. The gables and dormers have saddleback coping, and the central gable is topped with a large sundial finial in the form of a square block with metal gnomons on three sides, along with small ball finials on the flanking dormers. The gable ends and dormers also feature saddleback coping, and there are gable-end stacks with moulded cappings and skirtings. The rear extension includes two and three-light stone-mullioned casements with leaded panes and stopped hoods.
Inside, there is a large open fireplace with a dressed stone surround and an inglenook seat on the right. A smaller fireplace has a late 19th to early 20th-century moulded stone surround. The interior also features an early 18th-century open well staircase with turned balusters and a closed string leading to the attic. The beams have beaded mouldings, and there is a close-studded partition over the stairwell at attic level. The original roof timbers still bear carpenter's marks. The property was empty at the time of the resurvey in June 1986.
