Owlpen Manor
Owlpen Manor is a Tudor Grade I listed manor house of the Mander family, situated in the village of Owlpen in the Stroud district in Gloucestershire, England. There is an associated estate set in a picturesque valley within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The manor house is about one mile east of Uley, and three miles east of Dursley.
==History==
Owlpen Manor is widely recognised as one of the most romantic early manor houses in England. It was designated by Historic England as a grade I listed building on 23 June 1952. The manor house is of medieval origins, incorporating fabric dated to c. 1270, but was largely built and rebuilt in the Tudor period by the Daunt family between 1464 and 1616. Since then it has hardly been touched except for small improvements early in the 18th century, when the east wing of the house, together with the gardens, church and Grist Mill, were reordered by Thomas Daunt IV between 1719 and 1726.
The formal terraced gardens with yew topiary are a rare survival, said to be some of the oldest domestic gardens in England (Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe). They were probably laid out in their present form with their defining yew trees in early Stuart times, about 1620. They have been restored and extended in recent years.
