Our History and Amazing Team
The Manor Barn has a rich history of agricultural heritage, with events being held here to celebrate the harvest as far back as 1934. The famous wood carver, Gwen Raverat, produced a carving of the 'Farmers' Feast' based on our barn. The barn was used to store cereals, namely wheat. But as regulations changed over the storage of food in wooden barns, our barn became redundant. It was sad to see such a flagship of craftsmanship left to collect cobwebs, so in 2008 Edd and Paula decided to begin work to give it back its former glory.
