Grade I listed medieval manor house dating from 1310, set in park grounds with a medieval moat, interactive history exhibits across three buildings, dress-up activities, and The Moat Cafe on-site.
๐ Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families with children aged 5+ who want a genuinely free day out combining indoor history with outdoor space. The combination of museum, moat trail, playground, and cafe means different ages can stay engaged. Historic buildings retain the cold in winter - dress in layers and plan the cafe stop as a warm-up.

โA lovely museum with so much history and information about Harrow. I really enjoyed it and thought it was well worth the visit plus it was free to enter and theres a toilet, garden and a cafe. You can also buy a sovereign there as well.โ

โNice little museum showing the history of Harrow. You can find out a lot about local history with good displays. The maps showing how Harrow looked in the past is interesting especially if you try to find where your house is. Inside you will feel colder then outside if you're visiting during cold days. The staff are nice. Next to the manor is a nice playground for kids, a park with fields to play different ball games, have a picnic, run around and play with your dogs. The cafe opposite of the car park offers snacks, coffee, tea just good the warm up after spending time in the cold. The car park is free which is very good considering many parking is paid only. There's space between cars and disabled parking space.โ

Overview
Headstone Manor houses Harrow's local history across the Manor House, Small Barn, and Granary Learning Centre, with dress-up activities for children and nature trails around the medieval moat. The Moat Cafe provides refreshments. Free entry and free parking throughout. The historic building runs cooler than outside, so layers are advisable in cold weather. A playground and park adjoin the site.
