Manor House, 16th century Grade II manor house in Wickhamford, England
The Manor House combines timber framing with limestone rubble construction, featuring tile roofs and an irregular plan with two projecting gabled cross-wings.
Elizabeth I granted the manor to Thomas Throckmorton in 1562 following the dissolution of Evesham Abbey, which previously owned this monastic grange.
The property holds connections to George Washington through Penelope Washington, whose tomb in St John the Baptist church displays the Washington family coat of arms.
The Manor House sits near a medieval fish pond, currently a lake, forming an ensemble with the church and additional buildings within the estate grounds.
James Lees-Milne, born at the manor in 1908, documented his childhood experiences in this house through his autobiography titled Another Self.
