DescriptionHouse on site of medieval manor, already a ruin in 1863.
NAR ST16NW4
The ruins of a fortified late-medieval manor house are believed to have formerly existed in the grounds of Cadoxton Court, a large Victorian house about 550m. S.S.W. of the village and parish church of Cadoxton. A fine circular corbelled dovecot (Nprn37486) is the solitary but emphatic surviving evidence for the manorial status of the site.
Fragments of moulded stone incorporated in 19th-century outbuildings, all probably of 15th to 16th-century date, provide evidence for the date and character of the vanished manor house.
