NHER 15508 (Monument record) - Site of High Grove House, Walsingham

Site of High Grove House.
Marked on (S1) as large building running northwest to southeast along old road now covered by park. According to J. Denny (North Norfolk District Council) locally said to have been the manor house.
E. Rose (NAU), 3 December 1979.

A distant general view of the town published in (S2) shows this as a huge E shaped mansion, though too distant for any detail to be made out.

North Norfolk District Council states there is a story that it was deliberately demolished by a former owner of Abbey House to prevent his mother in law coming to live there.
E. Rose (NAU), 27 January 1982.

[1] says that as a boy around 1920 he used to play in the wine cellar of the building which remained in the field.
E. Rose (NAU), 17 February 1982.

The site now grassed over, but a mound or clump of tall grass was stated by present owners to mark the above mentioned cellars. See also under site NHER 15409.
