Join the Devon Group on a visit to an isolated manor house in the hills north of Dartmoor, on the edge of the Cornish border. Little has changed since the mid 15th century, it bears architectural similarities to the nearby Cothele. A former owner declared it 'one of the most beautiful houses of the late 15th century that I have ever seen'. After several changes in ownership, the house was bought by The Landmark Trust in 1969. Its repair was, at the time, the biggest project undertaken by the Trust. The building was recently closed for an extensive project; removing asbestos, replacing the heating system with ground source heat pumps and putting in underfloor heating. This is an opportunity to visit before the final phase of decorating and furnishing is completed. |
