Selly Manor, a Tudor Manor house, is home to a stunning collection of furniture dating from 1500 to 1750. Minworth Greaves is a medieval hall house of cruck-frame construction and both set in a delightful period garden.

There is plenty to see in the interesting village of Bournville, as well as Selly Manor and Minworth Greaves with its beautiful Tudor garden. Selly Manor and Minworth Greaves are two of the oldest timber-framed buildings in Birmingham. Both are beautiful examples and are set in a picturesque re-created period garden. It is also possible to get married in Minworth Greaves.

Guided tours & talks (need to pre-book) are available, portable notes, torches, magnifying glasses and there is a photo album tour of Selly Manor. All dogs are welcome in the garden, and guide dogs may enter the houses.
