More House, Tettenhall

No longer as easy to photograph as it was prior to the erection of the fence, unfortunately, and it's carefully hidden behind locked gates and walls at the front. Nonetheless, the main part of More House is a 17th century former hunting lodge, owned in the 19th century by Colonel Thomas Thorneycroft of the nearby Tettenhall Towers (ie the college) and Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101206135-more-house-tettenhall-wightwick-ward#.Yeb2I_7P3IU & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1206135 in 1977. The interior retains many 17th century features - panelling, doors, fireplace, beams and a 'minstrel' gallery.
