Summary

[edit]
Description
English: At the bottom of Church Road, Tormarton "Tormarton received its name from the tower (tor) of the church, and from meark, which in the Saxon language meant boundary (between Mercia and Wessex). The old manor house stood south of St Mary Magdalene Church and belonged to the family of de la Rivere. Most of the building was demolished in the Great Rebellion (1642-1649) but a section, including the vast kitchen and old fireplace has been incorporated into the present manor farm. The coat of arms of de la Rivere can still be seen in the end wall overlooking the churchyard." The above was copied from: http://www.southglos.gov.uk/NR/exeres/27f00380-b40d-465f-b31b-aa2ad6c241f9 where there is much more.
