This beautiful old building was originally a 14th Century manor house; it became the Post Office in 1844 and served in that role until 1872. It fell into disrepair over the next 20 years, but concerned local people saved it from demolition, arranged a careful restoration and handed it over to the National Trust in 1903. The sagging roof, tiny rooms and period furnishings provide a fascinating glimpse into the nature of domestic life more than 100 years ago.
