We live in a stone house, the main parts of which were built in 1640
(we are reliably informed). A great part of the village is built from the dark golden-coloured Hornton stone. Our house lies at one end of the twisting
main street which winds through the Hook Norton, and was part of the support buildings for Hook Norton Manor, formerly the home of the d'Oilly family.
The Manor gardens are famed, and open once per year to the public.

Thorpe Mandeville is set in the rolling hillsides of rural Northamptonshire, six miles north-east of Banbury. The small village has existed for many centuries. The earliest authentic record is in the Domesday Book survey of 1086 where it is styled ‘Thorp’, the generic name for a village. The name Mandeville is a corruption of the family name Amundeville; Richard Amundeville and his heirs were lords of the manor during the 13th century. In 1282 Richard, and his wife Matilda, were granted a lifetime right to a weekly market and an annual fair. Find out more by visiting: http://uk.geocities.com/mands.cole@btinternet.com/
