Ruislip Manor

This  morning I had to take  my Mother for her Covid booster vaccination. We went  to the  Winston Churchill theatre in Ruislip which is being used as a vaccination centre. Afterwards, as it was such a bright morning, we explored the environs of the  theatre which is on the site of the Manor of  Ruislip. Still remaining are an impressive  Great Barn, and this rather attractive Manor Farm House, built in about 1508 and now grade 2 listed. Apparently, it used to be known as Ruislip Court  until the early 19th century, and Manorial Courts  were held here until 1925. More recently, it has been restored and made accessible  and available  for various  meetings  and exhibitions.   Manor Farm Ruislip
We then had a gander down the High Street, and bought some Christmas  cards, before  returning home for lunch.
This afternoon I helped my Mum bake a Christmas cake. She is well and truly exhausted by all this activity, so I hope we have a more restful day tomorrow.
