In Avrilly, in the Orne department, the manoir de la Fosse presents a main building dating from the late 17th century, extended by two wings added around 1870. Its principal facade stands out with a projecting bay topped by a triangular pediment pierced with an oval window, while the interior retains 18th-century wood paneling and overmantels along with a carved wooden staircase railing characteristic of the region. The site underwent a notable change in 1817, when the surrounding moat was filled in.
