This was once a rather grand manor set in a beautiful estate. It was built in the late 1700s but the estate dates back to the 14th century. Past visitors include the poet Coleridge, and also Admiral Nelson is thought to have stayed here in 1802. It has been abandoned to nature since the last private resident died in 1921. I’ve made a short video of my visit along with a couple of other places if you’re interested (no pressure of course) Video
