Description
Manor Farmhouse and attached cottage date to the early 18th century, with later 18th-century additions, and 20th-century alterations and extensions. The cottage is built of coursed rubble stone, while the farmhouse has a dressed stone facade and red brick to the sides and rear, in an English garden wall bond. Both buildings have pantile roofs and brick stacks.
The farmhouse is a two-storey, three-window structure, and the attached cottage is a lower, two-storey, two-window building to the left. The farmhouse has a 20th-century glazed door and pivoting windows with painted stone sills. All openings have painted flat arches. The farmhouse has coped gables with plain kneelers, and end stacks. The cottage has an original centre entrance that has been blocked and replaced with a small window. A replacement three-light window is present on the ground floor right, with a gabled half-dormer above. A small, three-light blind window sits on the first floor left. It has painted stone sills and lintels, a coped gable, a shaped kneeler to the left, and end and centre stacks.
Inside the farmhouse, a dogleg staircase leads to the attic, featuring stick balusters, now boxed in, and a moulded handrail that ramps up to each landing. A section of plank and muntin partition remains beneath the stairs. A ground-floor room to the left has panelled window shutters, and the room to the right includes a panelled window recess. First-floor doors off the landing are of six raised and fielded panels. The cottage has a chamfered beam with run-out stops in the ground-floor room to the left, along with a plank door with wooden bolts leading onto a rear passage.
