KINGHAM WEST STREET SP2424-2524 (North-west side) 15/158 Manor Farmhouse

GV II

Farmhouse, now house. Dated 1801 incorporating parts of an earlier building. Regularly coursed and dressed limestone rubble with ashlar front; double-span slate roof with coped verges, parapet and eaves cornice. Double-depth plan. 2 storeys on plinth. 3-window front, 16-paned horned glazing bar sashes, except centre on first floor 9-paned in projecting surround. Central entrance; C20 half-glazed door in plain surround with bracketed segmental stone hood. Integral end stacks with moulded dripstones and capping to both ranges. Cellar to left gable end has boarded door with cambered head approached by straight flight of steps. Rear range has chamfered 4-light mullion window on first floor to right gable end and chamfered 2-light mullion window to attic. Datestone "1801" above rainwater head at junction with front range. Low 2-storey gabled range at right-angles to rear on right has coped verges and integral end stack. Interior. Dog-leg staircase in central stone-flagged entrance hall has stick balusters to open string and ramped handrail. Panelled window shutters, doors, plaster cornices and elm floor boards to front range. Left room of rear range has iriglenook fireplace with chamfered wood lintel and oak winder staircase, continuing to attic, in cupboard-like projection to left. Projecting rear range has chamfered cross beam with stepped ogee stops and triple segmental-arched fireplace to end wall. Central arch cut through by C20 toilet but smaller brick arch survives to each side, left with semi-circular cast-iron cauldron fed by flues and pipes from central fireplace: probably used for tallow making. First floor has collar truss roof in 2 bays with infilled doorway formerly connecting with rear range of main house. This has collar truss roof with double butt-purlins to both ranges and initials and date "SB 1801" carved on one of tie beams to front range. Dividing wall between ranges seems originally to have been external, in which case the rear range is probably earlier, the front range being added when the original part was encased in new stonework and reroofed in 1801. C20 lean-to in angle between rear range and projecting range to rear is not of special architectural interest. [2607]
