Gerbestone Manor, Manor house in West Buckland, England
The manor features squared chert stone construction with Ham stone dressing, steep slate roofs, and symmetrical bays with gabled outer sections.
The estate originated in 1235 when Knight Gerebert received a tax exemption from Bishop Jocelin of Wells, marking the foundation of Gerbestone.
The manor demonstrates traditional Somerset architectural elements through its Tudor arch-headed doorways, stone mullioned windows, and internal plank screens.
The property includes converted outbuildings that function as spaces for events, with the long barn specifically adapted for weddings and corporate gatherings.
During World War II, the manor transformed into accommodation for 30 evacuees, adapting its residential purpose to serve wartime needs.
