- description
- Built by Sir Edwin Lutyens in 1903 & one of his best houses. Large H-shaped house of Cotswold manor type, built of coursed stone, quarried locally. This stone is so soft & has weathered so much that the house would appear a genuine C16 building from the outside if it were in the stone country. Two storeys & attic. Nine windows. The outer wings have gables. Two gables between these wings. In the centre is a large projecting five-sided bay with 5 windows, each of 4 tiers of 2 lights, which light the music-room that contains the main staircase of the house & a gallery. Tiled roof. Casement windows. The north or entrance front has a projecting porch in the centre with 2 storeys over it. Chimney breast at the ends of the wings. Service wing attached.
