Manor Farmhouse

Manor Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 14th century, featuring an aisled hall with surviving timber posts. It includes a 15th-century cross wing and passage, a 16th-century reduction of the hall with the addition of fireplaces and an upper floor, a 17th-century refacing of the cross wing, an 18th-century addition, and minor changes from the 19th and 20th centuries.

The west front wall is faced with flint and has brick quoins, with cambered arches over the ground-floor openings, two of which are filled. The lower part of the much-altered south wall features flintwork with stone and brick quoins, while the upper part is a 19th-century brick refacing in English bond. The north elevations are made of flint with brick dressings, indicating alterations, and the east elevations show an exposed brick-nogged timber frame from the 16th century along with flintwork and brick dressings from the 18th century. The roof is tiled and hipped at the west, with a gable and half-hip at the east ends.

The symmetrical south front has two storeys with casement windows and a gabled porch featuring decorative bargeboards. Other elevations are irregular and display features from several periods, including a 15th-century stone window with a deep interior splay. Inside, there is a large Tudor-arched fireplace and another fireplace with a bressumer above stone jambs, along with exposed timber columns from the original 14th-century hall. An archaeological survey conducted in 1968 by Professor B. Cunliffe and John Budden provided a report detailing the phases of the farmhouse, including both missing and surviving elements.
