2/103 Manor Farmhouse (formerly listed as Manor Farmhouse 15.11.54 and Barn)

GV II*

Farmhouse, formerly manor house. Circa 1530-50; fragmentary medieval core, and alterations of c.1600-1630, 2 storeys and attics. Complex plan: a 2-cell cross-wing (parallel to the road) added to a (now-fragmentary) 2-bay open hall, and a parlour cell in the western re-entrant angle. Timber-framed and plastered: the framing is exposed at 1st storey of south side. A long-wall petty with exposed joist ends and splayed brackets beneath. Close-studding with 3 blocked moulded mullioned windows, and another (inserted) with diamond mullions. Mid C16 parapet gables of red brick with diaperwork patterning in burnt headers. The crowstepped gables have a moulded brick weathering beneath each step. Plaintiled roof (concrete plaintiles on rear ranges). External mid C16 gable chimneys with twin octagonal moulded shafts (reduced to just above plinth level). Late C19 3-light casements with transomes. Early C19 6- panelled entrance door with oblong fanlight and mid C20 flat-roofed porch on oak posts. Interior: both cells of the cross-wing have moulded beams and joists, lintelled open fireplaces and high quality close-studding, and one has a 4-centred arched doorway. The open hall has only a little studwork and the tiebeam from the open truss remaining. In early C17 a rare and interesting 2- bay block was added to the rear. On the north side was an open loggia with Large turned baluster shafts (now infilled). The room above was partly over the loggia and was supported on the shafts. It has an oriel window continuing for the entire length of 2 sides, with ovolo-mullions and transomes (now blocked). Internal panelling with fluted pilasters remains in one part of the room (now subdivided).
