The Manor House is one of the oldest houses in Chislehurst, originating from the 16th century, although much altered. Part of the original section can be seen on the right of this photo, with the White Lodge, a mid 19th century lodge, at the front in the centre. On the far left is The Stables, converted in the late 19th century. The whole complex is grade II listed - for listing particulars see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1359297. Its name is a misnomer, as it was never a Manor House as such - the name was given by its mid 19th century owner, George Baskcomb, who was responsible for many of the alterations.
