Minworth Greaves
Minworth Greaves is a house that dates to the 13th century. It would have been a simple building, yet it would have been the home of a wealthy family. The main hall was heated by an open fire in the centre of the room. The smoke would have escaped through the windows which were just holes in the wall called 'wind eyes'.
