Temple Manor, Stood, Medway


The Manor of Strood was given to the Knights Templer in the 13th C. and they took over the Manor House as an hotel as it stood on the north Bank of the Medway Eastuary near the Rochester crossing. The brickwork was added in the 16th C. It fell into disrepair under the local authority who allowed the manor to be turned into an industrial zone. It was rebuilt in the 40s by the Ministry of Works and saved for the Nation.

  1. Neat Building. Seems like a great building to model for a variety of games.
