The original Manor Farm, together with Manor House, stood on the site of the present Manor Gardens and Manor Green until the 1950s, and was well-known for the quality of its produce. The farm was erected on the site in about 1850, while the house was added a perhaps a little later, in around 1855, for William Hallett, founder of the Kemp Town Brewery and the town's second mayor.
In April 1936 the corporation purchased forty-one acres at Manor Farm and erected some 422 houses there, principally to rehouse people from the slum clearance areas around Carlton Hill . A few flats and houses were added post-war on the site of the farm buildings, while the adjacent Bristol Estate was developed in the late 1950s.
At the southern end of Manor Road stand two large detached houses. No.1, a convent and nursing home of the Augustinian Sisters, was built in 1906 and has a small chapel to the south. Adjacent is Robindene, a large, three-storey, late- Victorian house with a Doric porch.
