The Manor
Built in the 1500’s this fortified towered Manor house was restored by Ben in 2003 and forms his and Hannah’s principle residence – and the base for the ‘Spitfire Experience’.
Centuries of history lie in the surrounding fields – more ‘recently’ the Manor sits in the centre of what were the 82nd airborne drop zones on D Day.
In 1944, disaster came very close to the Manor when an American C47 carrying 21 paratroopers and crew crashed in flames. The wreckage rested just 50 yards from the property and tragically all 21 young servicemen were killed.
