Manor Farm

Manor Farm is a former manor house dating from the 16th to early 17th century, with an extension added in the late 18th to early 19th century. The building features close-studded timber framing with brick infill, while the right gable end was refaced in brick in the 20th century. It has a red tile roof and stacks made of coursed squared and dressed limestone with ashlar shafts, along with a brick porch. The late 18th to early 19th-century extension is constructed of brick and also has a red tile roof. The main structure has a rectangular plan and likely includes contemporary close-studded timber-framed extensions at right angles to the main body at the rear, along with a late 18th to early 19th-century brick extension at the gable end of the rear right-hand extension.

The main body of the house is two storeys tall with an attic and features a symmetrical three-windowed facade. Most of the windows are three-light 20th-century wood-mullioned windows with transoms, containing steel casements with horizontal glazing bars. There is a cross window above the central porch, and all windows have stopped hoods with inner beading. The central 19th-century gabled porch has a dressed limestone surround at the entrance, also with a stopped hood. Single light windows in the side walls feature stopped hoods as well. The gable ends have projecting stacks with twin diagonal shafts and moulded cappings, and the late 18th to early 19th-century extension at the rear has a brick dentil cornice at the eaves.

Inside, there is very fine 16th to 17th-century moulded plasterwork on the ceiling of the front left-hand room, which has been reduced in size by a partition wall to create a hall corridor. The ceiling is divided into four quarters, featuring a Tudor rose surrounded by rings of fleur de lys and acorns at the center. The quadrants are separated by bands of double scrollwork, and the margin of the ceiling is adorned with a band of intertwined roses and strawberries. Each quadrant is decorated with flowing motifs depicting vine, acorns, roses, and apples. A spiral staircase is also present, though there has been limited interior inspection. The house was home to William Ferrers, who died in 1625, as noted in a monument in the Church of St. Nicholas.
