Abstract: |
This report presents the results of a Historic Building Survey, produced on behalf of the National Trust, of Norbury Old Manor, Norbury Hollow, Norbury, Ashbourne, Derbyshire. The site is centred on National Grid Reference SK 12524 42359. The site of Norbury Old Manor was the principal seat of the Fitzherbert family from 1125 until 1649, and thereafter remained in family ownership until 1872 when it was purchased by Samuel Clowes. The estate had fallen into disuse by the 20th century and was subsequently bought and renovated by Marcus Stapleton Martin in the 1960s-70, who bequeathed it to the National Trust in 1987. The property, as it remains today, includes a stone wing of the medieval manor and a brick-built house of the 17th century structured around a central courtyard. Overlying this core fabric is evidence of the numerous alterations and additions of its previous owners which preserves the story of how the manor developed and make an important contribution to the special character of the place. Through a detailed assessment of the standing fabric of Norbury Old Hall, in combination with an expansive reassessment of the history of the property and previous accounts produced of its development, it has been possible to put forward a new account of its phased development. |
