| 説明 | The side of the Manor House down the passageway to the side of it (leads to the back of the Touchwood Centre and to the Solihull Council House). On Manor Walk.The Manor House was built in about 1495 by the Greswold Family. It was save for public subscription in 1945.The timber framed Manor House on Solihull High Street was built in approximately 1495 and is Grade II* listed. It has never been home to the Lord of the Manor so it isn't a manor house in the traditional sense. It was once owned by the Greswolde family, it was known in the 19th century as Lime Tree House due to the nine lime trees that had been planted outside it in 1720. For many years it was the surgery of local doctors Ferdinand Page and his son Ericson.The building was purchased by a brewery in 1938, and plans to turn it into a public house were shelved after the Second World War. During the War the building was used as the local headquarters by the Home Guard (as in Dads Army).In 1945 the house was sold, being purchased by a trust with funds raised through public subscription, and it was eventually used as a community association, and then as a adult and social centre.These days, The Manor House tearoom, serving hot and cold snacks and cake. It also has small stalls, and they sometimes have cosmetics and perfume on sale there (apparently - I haven't been into look). It's nearby the Touchwood Centre.Manor House - SolihullAt 126 High Street, Solihull.A pair of signs for the Manor House Tea Room & Garden.Yes thats my shadow, taking the photos (my hand / hands). |
