Woolbridge Manor [1] On the north bank of the River Frome, adjacent to Wool Bridge, stands Woolbridge Manor House and a cluster of farming outbuildings. The house was built in the 12th century and restored in the 17th century. One of the barns was a Saxon chapel, and later the manor was part of the monastery of Bindon Abbey. The house, some cottages and most of the outbuildings are listed.
The detached early 17th century manor house was a restoration of a 12th century building with a wing added circa 1660. The main front is of brick with stone quoins and details, the other walls are of rubble stone, all under a tile roof with lower courses of stone slates. The interior has been greatly altered, but two wall paintings survive. The house features in Thomas Hardy&#039;s book, &#039;Tess of the Durbervilles&#039;.
