Manoir-ferme stands in Le Mesnil-Jourdain (Eure), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Le Mesnil-Jourdain preserves a 16th-century architectural ensemble combining a farmstead with its outbuildings and a feudal earthwork. The site consists of a stone and flint building adjacent to the church, timber-framed structures extending from it, and a building set against a defensive mound. Protection as a historical monument acknowledges this composition where rural habitation neighbours the remains of medieval territorial organization.
