Notes about this historic site
1 House of early 16th century origin, restored after 1840 and in 1930s. Gardens and pleasure grounds probably date from 1930s, though they contain a 19th century wellhead. Recommended for inclusion on Local List.
2 Bought in the inter-War period by a steel and electrical magnate, who carried out extensive restoration on the house and developed the gardens. Features include a lodge, fine wrought iron gates, yew hedges separating flower from fruit and vegetable gardens. Particularly good example of an inter-War garden.
