Description
Manor Farmhouse, originally known as Home Farm, is a farmhouse that likely served as the home of the Barttelot family before Stopham House. The north front, featuring a crow-stepped chimney breast, dates from around 1485, although there was a house on this site prior to that. The main front, which faces east, is from the late 16th century. The house was partially dismantled in 1638, at which time a stained glass window, now located in the church's east window, was moved there. The house is E-shaped and has two storeys with five windows. It is constructed of coursed Hythe sandstone and features a stringcourse. The roof is tiled with hips on each projection. The windows are casement style with red brick dressings, some painted, as well as stone mullions and diamond-shaped panes. The central projection includes a porch with a room above it, and the doorway, which has a depressed pointed head, has been converted into a window. The south front has two windows and a stone chimney breast with two octagonal red brick stacks. The west front features four windows, including two large ones and one small gable.
