The Manor is a house in the village of Hemingford Grey, Cambridgeshire. It was built in the 1130s. Much of the original house remains intact.
@GreenKnoweManor Such wonderful, eccentric, atmospheric, fascinating place to visit, go if you can!

The History of the Manor, #HemingfordGrey In 1166, Payn Osmundsen, who built the house in 1130, died. The Manor passed down within his family, including to his granddaughter Alice, who married Ralph de Turberville. At this time the village was called 'Hemingford Turberville.'

Elizabeth (Ausmajesty) brings a gentle sense of presence to the garden, with clusters of crisp apple blossom pink blooms that fade to the softest blush white. Sweetly fragrant, with notes of lemon sherbet and Old Rose, it captures both heart and imagination. #DavidAustinRoses

Someone's just told the Dashwood sisters that DOT Productions won't be returning to #GreenKnowe until summer 2026! But don't worry - there are still plenty of reasons to visit us: https://t.co/2S6YwfLLQO
