Manor Farm comprises a collection of buildings of 18th and 19th Century date, including barns, cow houses, shelter sheds, stabling, granary, and blacksmiths. The site also contains the likely remains of a number of previous buildings of probable 17th to 19th Century date, including agricultural structures and the possible site of the Mulsoe's manor house. Manor Farm comprises a collection of buildings of 18th and 19th Century date, including barns, cow houses, shelter sheds, stabling, granary, and blacksmiths. In their individual parts the majority of the buildings are of negligible heritage significance, with the exception of a purpose-built mechanised threshing barn which is of possible national heritage significance, and a probable 19th century combined granary and blacksmith building with surviving forge which is of regional heritage significance. The buildings also possess group value on account of their shared history and functional relationship in respect to the development of process on the farm. The buildings of the site also contribute positively to the setting of the Grade II Listed Manor Farmhouse, and the character and appearance of the Twywell Conservation Area. Opposite the Manor Farm a barn on the south side of the road represents a mid-19th Century cowhouse and foldyard of local heritage significance which is considered to make a positive contribution to the Twywell Conservation Area and the setting of nearby listed buildings.
