Overview

History & significance

Manor Farm, near Lincolnshire, is a complex ancient monument comprising post-medieval formal garden remains and medieval enclosures. The site preserves evidence of organised land use spanning the medieval period through to the early modern era, with surviving earthwork features that indicate both agricultural and ornamental functions characteristic of a substantial manorial holding. The medieval enclosures represent field systems and boundary arrangements typical of late medieval estate management, whilst the post-medieval formal garden remains demonstrate the horticultural aspirations of early modern landowners. These overlapping phases of occupation and landscape modification provide material evidence for the evolution of aristocratic and gentry agricultural practice in the region.
