Headstone Manor and Museum

Headstone Manor is a museum site with several historic buildings, including a manor house, a large barn, a smaller barn, and a granary learning center. The buildings are arranged across grounds surrounded by a medieval moat that has been filled in over time.

The manor originated around 825 as property of the Archbishop of Canterbury and later came under the control of Henry VIII. The buildings on the site reflect construction periods spanning from medieval times to the early modern era.

The site reflects how people lived and worked in this area, especially through objects from the former Kodak factory that once employed many locals. The collections show the connection between everyday crafts and industrial life.

The museum operates from Thursday to Sunday, 11 AM to 3 PM, with no entrance fee required. Dedicated parking is available on site, making it easy to access by car.

The property contains one of the few remaining filled medieval moats in Middlesex. The earliest timber-framed building surviving in the region stands on these grounds and is still visible to visitors.
