The Manor House, Warboys

Dutch influence

Situated next to the church, it is a mid-15th century two-storeyed brick house, built for the Abbot of Ramsey, and subsequently a Cromwell family home. In 1593, three villagers were executed for allegedly bewitching the lessee's daughters. Extended by Sir John Leman after 1622. It is essentially unchanged since then.

Tour 1½-2 hours. Afternoon tours £13 including tea or coffee with cakes and biscuits; evening tours £15 including drinks and canapés.
