- Stanninghall
Stanninghall (52°42′29″N 01°20′12″E / 52.70806°N 1.33667°E) contains an old farmhouse, on the site of a mediaeval manor house which acquired the somewhat hard to say title of 'Stanninghall Hall', the remains of a church tower and a number of council houses. In the inter-war years, it was an isolation settlement for people suffering from tuberculosis. Millican states that the church was allowed to fall down by the family at the Hall who were Roman Catholics.
