Southcote Manor
Image: © Des Blenkinsopp Taken: 12 May 2014
This ordinary looking block is called Southcote Manor and is on the site of an early 17th century manor house which was demolished in 1921. The old brick foundations and remains of a moat are all that survive now. Still marked as an antiquity on some maps, the moat is more obvious at the front of the building.
