Roo Fisher, residential sales director at Savills based in Lincoln, said: “The Manor has been realistically priced as it requires considerable modernisation and once complete, it will make the most amazing family home.

“It’s not every day you can buy a house with its own moat so that is a real highlight for me, and the views of the open Lincolnshire countryside are fantastic.”
