Manoir d'Ourville stands in La Pernelle (Manche), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The manor of Ourville stands at La Pernelle, on the heights of the Cotentin peninsula, built of dressed stone in the second half of the 16th century. It is notable for its mullioned granite windows, a double carriage and pedestrian gate flanked by fluted pilasters, and a corner turret in the form of a bartizan crowning the house. The building appears to be missing a wing, a sign that the original plan was once larger.
