The Manor Farmhouse

The Manor Farmhouse is a house dating from the 17th century, featuring wings that form an L-shape, with a 19th-century wing at the angle and further extensions to the south. The northeast wing has an exposed timber frame with thin brick infill and a rubble stone plinth, while the southwest wing and the 19th-century wing are rendered. Other extensions are made of brick. The building has old tile roofs and 19th-century ornamental bargeboards. A chimney at the junction of the original wings is made of 17th-century brick with two square shafts set diagonally, and there is a matching 19th-century chimney with three shafts between the southwest and 19th-century wings. The house is two storeys high, with a front facing the road that has three bays. The left bay is gabled and slightly projecting, featuring barred sash windows on each floor. There is a similar sash window above a small low two-light casement in the centre bay, while the remainder of this bay is blank. The southwest front has two gabled bays with sash windows and a central door within a 20th-century porch. Inside, there is a 17th-century staircase with a moulded handrail, turned balusters, and square newel posts with ball finials and pendents. The flights to the cellar and attic are plainer. The northeast corner rooms feature ovolo moulded spine beams with elaborately carved stops, while other rooms have stop-chamfered spine beams.
