Spriddlestone (modern: Spriddlestone) is an historic manor in the parish of Brixton in Devon, England, long a seat of a branch of the prominent and widespread Fortescue family. The ancient manor house does not survive, but it is believed to have occupied the site of the present Spriddlestone Barton, a small Georgian stuccoed house a few hundred yards from the larger Spriddlestone House, also a Georgian stuccoed house, both centred on the hamlet of Spriddlestone and near Higher Spriddlestone Farm. The hamlet’s layout reflects its historical roots, with Georgian architecture indicating a period of development in the 18th century. Residents and visitors can observe the continuity of the manor’s legacy through the preserved Georgian houses, which contribute to the area’s character and sense of place. The proximity to Higher Spriddlestone Farm suggests an agricultural backdrop, underscoring the rural nature of the locality within the broader Plymouth postal district.
