Description
Manor Farmhouse is a large detached farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with rebuilding and enlargement in the early 19th century. It is constructed from coursed, squared, and ashlar limestone, featuring ashlar chimneys and a stone slate roof. The building is L-shaped, two storeys high with an attic, and has a single-storey outshut at the rear and an attached single-storey outbuilding to the northeast.
The southwest front has been refaced in early 19th-century ashlar and features a four-window arrangement with segmental-headed openings. The outer windows are tripartite sashes with 12-pane inner windows. There is a blocked segmental-headed recess above the central doorway, which has a six-panel door and a later 19th-century porch with a Jacobean revival parapet gable. The front also includes round-arched side porch windows and two gabled roof dormers with leaded casements.
On the northwest side, there is a 19th-century addition to the left and refacing to the right, where the eaves-mounted chimney has been increased in height during the 19th century. The roof is hipped at the west corner, and there are three segmental-arched tripartite sash windows. A doorway with a four-panel door and a segmental-arched head is located to the left of centre, along with two gabled roof dormers featuring leaded casements. The single-storey outbuilding to the left has timber lintels over its door and window openings.
The southeast side displays a blank gable end of the front range with a ridge-mounted chimney. There is a projecting chimney stack on the side of the back wing with a brick rebuilt shaft. A 20th-century outshut partly obscures a blocked upper floor window, while a small-paned upper floor casement is to the right, above which is a gabled dormer with a leaded casement.
The back elevation features a projecting gable end to the back wing on the right with a ridge-mounted chimney. There is a raking buttress at the rear of the front range, with a cavetto mullioned casement to the right that has two pointed-arched lights, likely reset from another location. To the right, there are three upper floor small-paned casements with stone lintels. The interior has been extensively remodelled during the early 19th-century alterations, and the roof is mostly from the 19th century. An important cruck-framed barn is located to the northwest.
