Sheldon Manor, Grade I listed manor house in Chippenham Without, England

The manor house displays red and black bricks with stone dressings across its two-story structure and contains distinctive attic spaces.

Originally owned by Humphrey Stafford in 1439, the manor passed through multiple noble families before Queen Elizabeth I granted rights to Henry Grey in 1575.

The property maintains collections of Nailsea glass, Persian saddlebags, porcelain, oak furniture, and paintings by notable artists including Tissot and Bassano.

The manor includes a stone chapel from 1450 in its grounds, featuring an east window with Perpendicular tracery for private worship services.

Records indicate continuous habitation since 1282, making Sheldon Manor the longest inhabited manor house in the entire Wiltshire region.
