Manse
A manse (IPA pronunciation: ; from Latin mansus, "dwelling", from manere, "to remain") is a house inhabited by, or formerly inhabited by, a minister, usually used in the context of a PresbyterianMethodistBaptist or United Church.When selling a former manse, the Church of Scotland always requires that the property should not be called "The Manse" by the new owners (but "The Old Manse" or other variations are acceptable). As a result, "manse" is intended to refer to a working building rather than simply apply as a name.
