Manor Farmhouse

Manor Farmhouse, formerly known as Walton Farm, is a farmhouse with origins in the 16th century, significantly rebuilt and refenestrated in the mid to late 19th century. The construction is primarily English bond brickwork, with some tile hanging at the rear, a limestone gable stack rising to the gable level, and a plain tile roof. The building appears to have developed from a passage plan, with a left room originally heated and potentially a right room heated with a back lateral eaves stack. A large rear wing was added in the late 19th century, as well as a lower wing to the right featuring a large external stepped lateral stack.

The main front is two storeys and an attic, with a near-symmetrical three-window facade. A four-light casement sits under a segmental arch on either side of a central 20th-century plank door, sheltered by a gabled porch. Three four-pane sash windows are at the first floor level. The wing to the right has replaced casements, and a small window is incorporated into the stack. An external flight of steps ascends the right return to a loft doorway. Gables of the main block have casements illuminating the attic space. The rear and the T-shaped wing have various casements, some of which are 20th-century steel.

Inside, one framed wall remains visible along the original through passage. The room to the left has a g-compartment ceiling, and heavy chamfered beams. The room to the right retains a lateral fireplace with stone cheeks and a later brick segmental arch, along with remnants of a curing chamber. The wing with the lateral stack contains two heavy hollow chamfered beams. The roof structure is a propped A-frame with heavy principals. The first floor retains some timber framing, including the left gable wall, while very wide elm floorboards remain at the top level. There are also remnants of a staircase with a flat rail balustrade.
