The Manor

The Manor is a house in the village of Hemingford Grey, Cambridgeshire. It was built around 1160, or may have been built as early as the 1130s and is one of the oldest continuously inhabited houses in Britain — sometimes claimed by some to be the oldest, although this is disputed, with the officially recognised oldest continually occupied house in Britain being in Saltford. Much of the original house remains intact despite various changes over nine centuries.
