The White House, Aston Munslow

The White House in Aston Munslow is a manor house near Munslow that blends three different building periods together. The east wing comes from the 14th century, the middle has Tudor timber-frame construction, and Georgian additions were made in later years.

The building started in the 14th century as a medieval manor house with traditional timber construction. Over centuries, parts were rebuilt and new sections added as owners adapted it to their changing needs.

The building once served as a museum showing tools and objects from farm and home life. These displays told the story of how rural people worked and lived through the ages.

The property now works as holiday accommodation managed by the Landmark Trust, letting visitors stay overnight in this historic building. Be ready for uneven floors and narrow stairs typical of older homes.

In the garden stands a 14th-century dovecote with about 500 nest holes still visible. This is one of the few medieval pigeon houses that remain in Shropshire.
