The pond and court of Vieux-Deffend

Lecture éditoriale
The record describes a rectangular house, at once feudal in its defences and Renaissance in its taste, with mullioned windows, a door of the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century and brick bartizans at the corners, giving on a court of outbuildings to the west and on a pond to the east. The moats that once surrounded it are dry. The manor was listed in 1986. The pond is the water feature the record gives; the grounds are not otherwise described.
