description
This is one of the finest houses in Sussex. There was a fortified house here in the Middle Ages & some parts of this are incorporated in the east wing of the present building. But the main bulk of the house was built by Sir Thomas Palmer from 1577 onwards. It was sold by his grandson to Sir Thomas Bisshopp in 1597. The Bisshopp family, who succeeded to the Barony of Zouche in 1815, retained it until it was sold to the present owners in 1922. The house is built of stone rubble with ashlar quoins, a Horsham slab roof & brick chimneys. The main front faces south & is E-shaped. Three s nine w. The projecting wings are surmounted by gables. In the centre is a porch, which was originally the main entrance, with 2 s above it & a gable. the doorway of the porch has pilasters, projecting cornice & cartouche over it with swags flanking this. In the angles of the 2 outer wings are 2 slightly smaller projections also gabled. Between these & the gable surmounting the porch is one gabled dormer on each side. Beneath the west one are the ws of the Great Hall consisting of 3 tall narrow ws, each of 4 tiers of 3 lights with stone mullions & transoms Beneath the east one are 3 sash ws with glazing bars intact. But the majority of ws on this front are the original casement ws. The west front has been partly refenestrated in 1710, by Sir Cecil Bisshopp, the 5th baronet (1673-1725) Three s five w. The centre w bay projects with long & short ashlar quoins & a pediment over it. The flanking w bays are recessed. Outside these are projecting chimney breasts with similar quoins. the outer w bays are surmounted by peds. Mostly casement ws but some sash ws inserted, the glazing bars intact. The north front is irregular. The entrance is by a 2 s porch, added in 1870, which is flanked by octagonal buttresses with ogee heads. At the north-east corner is a squat 2 s detached tower which is joined to the house by a wall. The interior dates mostly from the C16 but there is at least one room on C18 style. The Long Gallery is on the top floor with dormer ws. Country Life 19th April,1902.
