Description:Highfield Manor was built in 1880 by David Hollin, a boot and shoe manufacturer. The gardens were influenced by those at Versailles, and Mr Hollins employed three gardeners.
In 1900 Mr Hollin commissioned a series of photographs, showing the inside and outside of his home.
Although Highfields Manor was demolished in 1967, the lodge house and ornate gates can still be seen on Newport Road.
