Description

Manor Farmhouse, along with its attached dovecote and outbuildings, is a farmhouse that likely dates back to the early 18th century, with a datestone indicating 1785. It is built of squared coursed ironstone with a limestone ashlar front and has a Collyweston slate roof. The building has a double-depth plan and stands two storeys high with an attic. The main front features a three-window range, with a central six-panel door that has an arch-headed fanlight and a rusticated ashlar surround. The windows are sash style with glazing bars, and they have rusticated ashlar surrounds with keyblocks. The central window on the first floor has an arch head, and there is a moulded stone cornice above. The roof has three dormers with alternating rectangular and segmental pediments, along with ashlar gable parapets and ashlar stacks at both ends. The left gable displays the datestone and sash windows with glazing bars.

To the right of the main front is the attached dovecote, which features a blocked carriage arch with brick dressings at the head and brick gable parapets to the right, topped with a wooden glover at the ridge. There is a late 18th-century range of outbuildings attached at right angles to the right of the dovecote, which includes a one-unit building from the 18th century. The elevation of the outbuildings has a six-bay range of first-floor openings, with various ground floor openings, four of which are located at the far left and have wood lintels. These outbuildings were likely originally used as stables with haylofts above. They have a slate roof with ashlar gable parapets and a partially legible inscribed tablet on the far left. Although the interior was not inspected, the farmhouse is noted to have a late 18th-century staircase with turned balusters.
