Minworth Greaves dates
from the around 1250 and
this model depicts how it
would have looked at that
time. in the following
centuries however the
building fell into total
delapidation with only the
timber frame left standing.

In 1911 the Cadbury
brothers purchased the
remains and had them rebuilt
at their present site at
Bourneville

Minworth Greaves as it
appears today
