Major manor house

[edit]

Amazingly enough, this is a major manor house, and the Thomas Hardy association would be of interest to many English Literature buffs. It is not of political or economic note, but few architectural articles meet those criteria, to be sure. Thus, it is primarily of cultural significance, which is as much as many buildings can claim.
