Summary

Manor Farmhouse is a 17th century building of carrstone rubble with brick dressings. The façade retains the remains of early 17th century windows, at least in the shape, though these have been cut by 18th century casements at the upper floor. This two storey building has three bays, and the associated barns are thought to date to the 16th to 17th centuries.
