Manor House Barn and Approach Bridge

The Manor House Barn and Approach Bridge is a barn, coach house, and stable, dated 1697 but rebuilt in the late 18th century to early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed squared limestone rubble and ashlar, topped with a graduated stone slate roof. The northern half has two storeys and two bays, while the southern end features three bays that are open to the roof. The building has quoins and the west facade of bays one and two includes two 12-pane top-hinged windows on the ground floor and 9-pane windows above, all within plain stone surrounds.

In bays three, four, and five, there is a tall central cart entrance with a segmental arch made of edge-tooled gritstone, featuring voussoirs and quoined jambs. Above this entrance is a reset date stone with raised lettering that reads "I B M 1697". The east entrance is accessed via a single arch ashlar bridge with stone plain parapets. Flanking the cart entrance are two tiers of three vents on the left and two vents on the right. The building also features moulded kneelers and gable copings.

On the rear, bay two has an external stair leading to a 6-panel door in a plain surround, with a 9-pane window to the right and moulded stone gutter brackets. There are added outbuildings that are not of special interest. The left return shows the principal facade of the coach house, which faces the Manor House. This facade includes semi-circular arches for the coach entrance on the left and the stable doorway on the right. The coach arch has edge-tooled voussoirs and a projecting keystone, while the stable door features imposts and a keystone.

There is an inserted square loading door on the first floor, centered above a projecting ashlar band, with a second band at eaves level. In the gable, there is an oval glazed window below three tiers of pigeon holes with perching ledges, and a round-arched owl hole at the apex. Local residents recall that the upper floor was once used as a chapel or non-conformist meeting place.
