Manoir de la Cocardière stands in Guerquesalles (Orne), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Guerquesalles, in the Orne department, the Cocardière manor house preserves the facades and roof of a 16th-century dwelling that belonged for generations to the same noble Norman family. Its most notable feature is the infill work, rammed earth on the ground floor and patterned brickwork on the floor above. The manor is best appreciated from the outside, close to the village church.
