Description
Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1739, with a mid-19th century refacing at the rear. It features painted stone with block dressings and a blue tile roof with verge parapets. The building has stone end and axial centre ridge stacks and is designed with a through-passage plan. The front is two-storey and irregularly fenestrated, displaying five windows with four-pane sashes of varying sizes. There are three windows on the first floor to the left of centre, and three on the ground floor in the centre and to the right, with an entrance to the right of the centremost window. The entrance has a 20th-century glazed door and a block label above it. The right-hand side has a single-storey wing attached. The rear, originally built in 1739, was rebuilt in the mid-19th century as a garden front, featuring rock-faced coursed stonework and a symmetrical layout of four four-pane sashes.
