Woolsthorpe Manor, Manor house in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, England.
The stone farmhouse consists of a main building and several outbuildings arranged around a central courtyard with a traditional English garden and orchard.
Isaac Newton spent the plague years of 1665-1667 at this residence, where he developed fundamental theories of calculus, motion, and optics in isolated study.
The National Trust maintains the house as a museum displaying Newton's scientific instruments, manuscripts, and personal artifacts from the 17th century.
Visitors can access the manor Friday through Sunday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with adult tickets priced at £9.20 and children at £4.60.
The property preserves a grafted descendant of the apple tree that sparked Newton's gravitational theory, surviving despite lightning damage over centuries.
