This house, rather hidden behind its high wall and the trees, was built around 1850 for the estate manager of Worksop Manor. The architect is thought to be T C Hine of Nottingham. The size of the house indicates that estate manager was a prestigious post to hold. There is a bench mark http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4691386 on the pier at the right.
