MELLS
An attractive
village with stone-built houses and thatched
cottages, Mells also boasts an Elizabethan
manor house and a 15th century
church with a tall tower. There are fine views
from the village and nearby are several
prehistoric camps. These include Tedbury Camp
with earthworks that rise in places to 13
feet. The Manor is erroneously linked with the
nursery rhyme ‘Little Jack Horner’ it was
owned for centuries by the Horner family.
