Preston Manor is the former manor house of the ancient Sussex village of Preston, now part of the city of Brighton and Hove. The present building dates mostly from 1738, when Lord of the manor Thomas Western rebuilt the original 13th-century structure (part of which remains inside), and 1905 when Charles Stanley Peach's renovation and enlargement gave the house its current appearance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preston_Manor,_Brighton The building is now owned by the council and used as a museum http://www.brighton-hove-rpml.org.uk/Museums/prestonmanor/history/Pages/home.aspx
