Notes about this historic site

1 2 Corley Rectory (now Corley Manor) garden, Corley.
Lovie reported the building was rebuilt in 1823; the villa-type pleasure grounds adjoin the churchyard. In 1887 grounds included a paddock with boundary planting, a kitchen garden and pond.
He adds that when he visited (1996/1997) the gardens at the front retain a 19th century character consisting of a shtrubbery and conifer planting.
At the time of Lovie’s visit, he reports that the kitchen garden appears to have been developed.
