What does MANOR mean in Scrabble?
noun
A large country house with lands attached, historically the main residence of a lord or landowner within a feudal estate.
In medieval England, a manor was both a physical residence and a unit of local administration, where a lord held land and exercised certain legal rights over tenants who worked it. The word survives today mainly to describe a grand country house, often called a manor house, along with its surrounding grounds. Some of these buildings have stood for centuries and are now open to the public or used as hotels.
