Shanks House, 18th-century country manor in Cucklington, England
The two-story manor house features golden oolite stone construction, traditional paneled interiors, and a prominent east-facing entrance drive with surrounding grounds.
Records from 1546 detail the sale of Shanks House and 50 acres of land to Robert Kemys, marking the beginning of documented ownership.
The building received a Georgian Group Award in 2015 for its restoration, which maintains the 18th-century architectural elements while incorporating modern conveniences.
The Grade I listing status requires specialized permits and professional consultation for any modifications or renovations to preserve its historical features.
The interior includes an 18th-century room with decorative stucco work and a fireplace crafted from multiple types of marble.
