Wayford Manor House
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Wayford Manor House is a country house with a garden in Britain, situated in Wayford, Somerset, England. It has been designated a Grade I listed building.[1]
House
The house includes a central range which was rebuilt about 1600 on the site of an earlier building by Charles Daubeney,[2] probably with William Arnold as master mason.
The north wing was completed in 1900 by architect Sir Ernest George.[1]
Garden
Work on the gardens, including terraces and archways was carried out by Harold Peto around 1902.[3] Peto was the brother of the wife of Lawrence Ingham Baker when he bought the house.[4] The current Arts and Crafts garden is partly built on the site of an earlier Elizabethan garden.[5] It includes a Japanese garden and a collection of mature trees,[6] along with a rock garden, orchard and shrubs.[7] The garden is listed, Grade II, on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England.[8]
Wayford Woods, close to the house, has an ornamental lake and is known for its large number of fairy doors.[9][10]
