Originally built in the late C18, the house and its estate were purchased in 1919 by the Radcliffe Infirmary. The manor became a nursing school and subsequently offices while the portion of the estate that was not sold off for housing development have been used for new hospital development. This is the view when approaching from Osler Road, itself named after Sir William Osler (1849-1919), Regius Professor of Medicine.
