Fitznells Manor is the last surviving manor house in the borough of Epsom and Ewell in Surrey, England.〔 It is a Grade II listed building.〔 〕 ==Development== The property is named after Sir Robert Fitz-Neil whose family held the estate until 1386, but the oldest part of the current building dates back to the house probably built by Sir John Iwardeby in the early 16th century. He built a traditional timber-framed hall house and it is the solar wing of this house that survives.〔EPS (1988) Survey report prepared for Conifercourt Ltd〕 Iwardeby's original house was probably similar to the “Bayleaf” farmhouse〔 〕 at the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum. In the early 17th century with the rest of the original house either demolished or otherwise destroyed the remaining solar wing was extended to the west by the addition of a structure with the three distinctive gables.〔 In the late 18th century a large single-storey kitchen area was added to the north elevation including the large chimney. During the 19th century further single-storey extensions were added to the north and a large two-storey extension to the south with a verandah.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fitznells Manor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
