Description
Manor Farmhouse is a house built in the mid to late 18th century, designed in an L-plan layout and altered in the 19th century. It features remains of a 17th-century bay at the rear. The 18th-century section is constructed of red and vitreous brick, with some areas displaying a chequered pattern and others featuring diaper patterning. It has a moulded plinth and a band course at the first floor level. The eaves were raised in the 19th century, and the house has a slate roof with an 18th-century brick chimney at the rear.
The building is two storeys high, with an attic and cellar, and consists of three bays. The windows have been altered and are paired wooden casements with horizontal glazing bars and segmental heads. The central entrance door has two flush panels and a rectangular fanlight with irregular glazing bars, also topped with a segmental head. There are paired wooden casements in the attic gables. The left gable features a pair of blocked windows on each floor, while the right gable has similar blocked windows on the ground floor and a cellar window. The altered 17th-century bay at the rear is timber framed with herringbone brick infill and has a 20th-century flat roof.
