Preston Manor: This delightful old Manor House evokes the atmosphere of an Edwardian gentry house both upstairs and downstairs.
Dating from c.1600, rebuilt in 1738 and substantially added to in 1905, the house and its contents give a rare insight into life during the early years of the 20th century.
Explore more than twenty rooms over four floors, from the servants quarters, kitchens and butlers pantry in the basement to the attic bedrooms and nursery on the top floor.
Adjacent to Preston Park and the 13th-century parish church of St Peter, the Manor also comprises walled gardens and a fascinating pets cemetery.
From 1 April 2005:
Tues - Sat 10am - 5pm, Sun 2 - 5pm
Closed Monday (including Bank Holidays)
Winter closure - closed to the general public from 1 October 2005 to 31 March 2006.
