Bowlingly

Estate patented to James Bowling, 1658, and present manor house built 1733. East-west wing added about 1830.

Before dawn, August 2, 1813, British troops under Sir Charles James Napier landed here and after defeating the local militia seriously damaged the manor house and its contents before reembarking.
