Pockerley Manor
NZ 223-545 County Durham England

Pockerley ManorPockerley Manor is a fine two storey medieval stone stronghouse, which replaced a Norman fortified manor house. Part of a manorial complex, the vaulted ground floor, supports a hall and a small chamber, under roof timbers of 1440. The three-light mullion window in the hall, is a 20th century replacement but the stairs in the end wall, are lit by an original square headed two-light window. Early in the 19th century, the manor house was extended, when the Georgian wing, was added. 5 miles north is Ravensworth Castle and 6 miles south-east is Lumley Castle.
