[NT] Norbury Manor. Derbyshire. March 2019
An absolute delight to visit this establishment. As ever, a step back in time. So interesting to embrace its history and take some shots on a warm Spring day.
The National Trust's Norbury Manor is a 15th-century Elizabethan manor house and the adjoining 13th-century stone-built medieval Norbury Hall, known as The Old Manor in Norbury near Ashbourne, Derbyshire. It is a Grade I Listed Building.
A Low, stone-built medieval hall, set in the picturesque countryside of Derbyshire.
Norbury Manor, former seat of the Fitzherbert family. The hall is a very rare example of a medieval hall built on the first floor, once forming part of the private apartments of the Fitzherbert family.
The later 17th century red brick farmhouse which was built in front of the hall is available as a holiday cottage. The only surviving part of the original early medieval hall offers a rare king post, Tudor door and 17th-century Flemish glass. Visitors can also find a beautifully maintained small garden space which includes a knot garden, as well as a short walk into the woodland, and path which leads down to the river.
