Hello all, another report on this manorhouse.
Visited with Miz Firestorm and SkankyPants.
Well, after hearing this place was fairly hard to get into, we made it in fairly easy and straightforward
Bit of history of the place
"The Rayner family has been farming in the Colnbrook area since the reign of Elizabeth I. In 1945, the family purchased Berkyn Manor Farm & Manor House in Horton, together with 60 acres of land (the site of Berkyn Manor was also the home to the famous poet, Milton, and his parents from 1632 to 1638). In 1954, J Rayner & Sons Ltd was founded from the original farming partnership."
Here are some of my photos.
I had a great day exploring with Miz Firestorm and SkankyPants and i hope to do so again soon!
Thanks for looking
