Why this spot
Norman manor village enclosed about 1467
Sizeable hamlet of Monks Kirby with a watermill and chapel, held by the Waver family from the Norman Conquest. It was abandoned around 1467 when Henry Waver, a London draper and sheriff, was licensed to fortify the manor and enclose 500 acres.View source →
