Martholme, Medieval manor house in Hyndburn, England.
Martholme consists of a T-shaped structure built from sandstone rubble with slate roofs, featuring a three-bay crosswing and medieval timber-framed components.
The property belonged to the de Fitton family in the 13th century before passing to the Hesketh family, who rebuilt sections of the house in 1577.
The building displays architectural elements from different periods, including a 14th-century arched doorway and stone panels with the Hesketh family eagle emblem.
The manor opens for guided tours at 2 PM and 4 PM during specific dates in May, June, July, August, and September, with tickets priced at £10.
The structure retains traces of its original moat and incorporates a detached medieval timber-framed section that likely functioned as the kitchen.
