Description
Manor Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1735, with some late 19th-century restoration and alteration. It features a rendered exterior, a slate roof, wide bracketed eaves, brick stacks, and grooved end pilasters in a classical style. The building is two storeys high with four bays, and it has sash windows with exposed frames that are virtually flush mounted, complete with glazing bars, cambered heads, moulded surrounds, and keystones. The door opening is located in the second bay from the left, featuring a moulded architrave and a six-panelled door, with the top two panels glazed and a flat moulded wooden hood supported by shaped brackets.
Inside, there is much good early 18th-century work, including panelling in the principal ground floor rooms and entrance hall, panelled doors, and ornamental cornices. The forecourt is enclosed by a brick wall with freestone coping, which ramps up to each side to brick piers with moulded caps. The left pier has an ornamental urn with a pineapple finial, and part of the coping on the central section of the wall has been removed.
