A brief history of Moor House:

Said to be one of the oldest properties in the area, Moor House has many characteristics that are quirky, idiosyncratic and unique.

Believed to be over 400 years old, the property served as a local general store during the 19th Century, right up until 1957. It was owned by George Willmott and the Wilmott family, a surname associated with the infamous Cock Road Gang, going back to the late 1700's and early 1800's.

Bread was baked in a bread oven at the back of the house and pigs were slaughtered by the local butcher where the garden now lies. In the second reception room, you can clearly see where 'Handel Willmott' (one of George Willmott's 15 children) is scratched into a pane of glass.

The property was converted back to a private dwelling in 1957 with the current owner purchasing in 1963.
