Description

Manor House is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, with alterations made in the early 19th century. It is constructed of rendered rubble and has a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and an added rear outshut, featuring four first-floor windows.

In the second bay, there is a 19th-century porch with a trefoil-panelled gable above a chamfered pointed-arched opening, which leads to a part-glazed door surrounded by an ashlar quoined frame with a moulded chamfer. To the right of the porch is a four-light double-chamfered mullion-and-transom window. The other windows are paired sashes with glazing bars set in ashlar surrounds. The house features a cyma recta cornice, shaped kneelers, and ashlar copings. There are corniced stacks at both ends and between the third and fourth bays.

At the rear, there is a round-arched landing window in the outshut, which has an ashlar surround with imposts. The left return has a two-storey canted bay window, with double-chamfered mullion windows on the sides and a three-light mullion-and-transom window in the centre, along with a cyma recta string course and cornice. The gable of this bay has a blocked single-light window. An external stack is corniced at the top. The right return features quoins, a damaged string course, and two blocked first-floor single-light windows, with the left window being chamfered and the right window being double-chamfered.

Inside, at the north end, there is a large chamfered four-centred arch kitchen fireplace with flanking bread ovens, the left oven having a rebated opening. The ceilings are beamed and have 19th-century cornices. This house is likely the one mentioned in the inventory of Thomas Metcalfe, who died in 1575.
