Mangers Farmhouse

Mangers Farmhouse is a house dating from the late 16th century and early 19th century, with some restoration in the 20th century. It features an exposed timber frame with painted brick and some ironstone infill, set on a rubble base. There are areas of refacing with ironstone and brick dressings, including quoins, a band, and a plinth. Some brickwork is in Flemish Garden Wall bond, and the upper walls on the south side are mainly tile-hung. The house has a hipped tile roof with a gable on the lower south wing and a shafted stack. It is a timber-framed, three-bay lobby-entrance house with minor alterations, including a west extension from the early 19th century and a south wing with a 17th-century frame that has been reclad on the main face. The building is two storeys high with irregular fenestration. It has 20th-century casements, but retains two 16th-century upper three-light casements with chamfered openings and cills supported by carved brackets. There are also 20th-century half-glazed doors. Inside, the farmhouse displays massive framing and a large chimney-breast with a bressummer on chamfered stone jambs.
