Burton Agnes Manor House, Medieval manor house in Burton Agnes, England
The manor house contains a Norman undercroft with massive piers supporting a groined and vaulted roof reinforced with heavy chamfered ribs.
Roger de Stuteville constructed the manor house between 1170 and 1180, naming both the building and village after his daughter Agnes.
The structure represents different architectural periods, with its Norman foundations and fifteenth-century timber roof modifications by Sir Walter Griffith.
Visitors can access the manor house without charge from April through October, with operating hours between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM daily.
Behind the manor stands a rare water wheel system that was operated by a donkey to draw water from an ancient well.
