Bradley (house)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bradley is small medieval manor house located amongst woodland and meadows in Newton Abbot, Devon, England. The house is now in the ownership of the National Trust.
The house is noted as one of the most complete medieval manor houses in Devon, with a fine east front and chapel, and contains a collection of Pre-Raphaelite art and Arts and Crafts furniture.
Bradley was given to the National Trust in 1938 by Mrs A. H. Woolner. Her family still live in the house and manage it on the Trust's behalf.
The Great Western Railway built a series of 4-6-0 steam locomotives names after various manor houses. Locomotive 7802 was named Bradley Manor and is preserved on the Severn Valley Railway.
