How and Why Headstone Manor Has Changed Since it was Founded
As the real date of when Headstone Manor is not known, thought it is
known that it goes back to at least 1233. De La Hegge was first ones
to own headstone Manor. When it was owned by the Hegge family
Headstone Manor was named Heggeton or Hegton. It was built in 825 as a
working farm until the 1920s. Manor House, Tithe Barn, Granary and the
Small Barn are the main four buildings in Headstone Manor. Each of the
buildings are there for many individual reasons. Tithe Barn, Small
Barn and the granary are grade II listed buildings, and the Manor
House which is the most important part of Headstone Manor is a grade I
listed building. It was in 1986 when Headstone Manor was designed as
the home of Harrow Museum and Heritage Centre.
The Manor House:
Along side other 6000 grade I listed buildings the Manor House is one
of the most important buildings in the history of Great Britain. Manor
House was built in 1310 by the family of De La Hegge. In the past it
was commonly used as a house for the highly-stated owner of Headstone
Manor like the De La Hegge family and Archbishop of Canterbury. The
Manor House also has a moat, the rare thing about this most is that it
is the only one in Middlesex which is still filled with water. It is
said that the moat is with the oldest part of Headstone Manor, which
assures the posh status of the owners. At present there are ducks and
fishes in the moat which once again symbolizes the posh status of the
owners who owned Headstone Manor at that time.
The age of the beams in Headstone Manor are told to be 700years old,
this was known by help of Chronology. The Manor House at that time was
split in to two parts. In the smaller part of the House all the
servants used to live and in the other part the owners used to live.

Graves hall, which was constructed in 1889, used to be the only building on the campus of Morehouse College during early years of operation. Graves hall used to house all college resources including living resources and classrooms. Today Graves hall is one of many residence halls on campus and is predominantly living quarters, as opposed to the various departments it used to house. Although some things about the hall has changed since 1889, some things remain the same. Graves hall is still producing noteworthy alums and is still a vital part of the institution, the city of Atlanta and the state of Georgia. The environment of Graves Hall is not always positive but both positive and negative environments aid in transforming boys into men by ushering a sense of responsibility and respect through stiff rules, policies and peer to peer relations, provides a safe, comfortable living space through various team building activities, heightened security and positive atmospheres, boost resident morale through functional facilities, and hall pride, and stimulates motivation to achieve by imposing high standards upon residents.
