Description

Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1700, with alterations made in the later 18th century and the 20th century. The lower walls are made of roughly-coursed tooled sandstone, while the upper walls are more evenly coursed and feature herring-bone tooling on the house and pecked tooling on the downhouse. The main house has a Welsh slate roof, while the downhouse has a concrete tile roof, with stone ridges, copings, and stacks.

The farmhouse has a hearth-passage plan and is two storeys high. The main house consists of two bays, and the downhouse has one bay, both with wide proportions. There is a boarded passage door with a small glazed panel. A central doorway in the main house, which has quoins and a shouldered lintel, is now blocked, and to the right is a three-light 20th-century casement under an extended lintel with a tall keystone. There is a blocked five-window at the far right and a narrower casement in a quoined surround to the left, with two-light casements above. The downhouse has a three-light 20th-century casement in an extended opening and a 19th-century six-pane sash above it, both under herring-bone tooled lintels, with the upper lintel keyed. The house features stepped and banded end chimneys, and there is a pent rear extension to the downhouse.

Inside, the downhouse (kitchen) has big chamfered bead and chamfered joists. The houseplace features quarter-round moulded joists, a corniced firebeam, a bracked stone fireplace surround with an old cupboard to the right, and another large chamfered beam. The traditional ground plan includes a dairy behind the parlour and stairs behind the passage leading to the houseplace. There are back stairs behind the downhouse leading to an isolated room above, which has a plank door with a wooden sneck. The main staircase has non-shaped splat balusters. The upper floor reveals visible beams, including large ties, and features a six-panel wainscot door. An attached barn to the south is not of special interest.
