Description
Fulwell manor was given to the priory of Durham by Bishop William of St. Carileph, and became part of the bursar's property. Buildings recorded there in the manorial and bursar's accounts between the 14th -16th centuries include a hall, chamber, cowhouse, stable, grange and dovecot. The site has not been located, but the largest barn on the Church Commissioners' map has been suggested as a possibility.
