Old Soar Manor
Old Soar Manor in Kent is a remarkably complete survival of a late 13th-century knight's solar and chapel, standing almost exactly as it was built over seven hundred years ago. The scale is intimate but the sense of antiquity is immense — you can almost feel the weight of medieval life in the thick stone walls and small vaulted spaces. The setting among Kentish orchards and fields only adds to the timeless atmosphere.
- Rare 13th-century knight's solar
