3 Eccleshall A manor house fortified in 1200, used as a Palace by the Bishops of Lichfield, built on the site of an earlier moated fortification. It was badly damaged during the Civil War so a new manor house was built inside the old walls. One tower, the bridge and a few pieces of wall are all that remain of the original building. Private.
