Property History
The authentic limewashed interior is a very rare survivor, with low-ceiling rooms and 19th century panelled doors and shutters. The floor plan is interesting, with five rooms on the ground floor around a long hall with narrow stairs placed across the kitchen at the centre. Georgian maps show the existence of a house here before 1775, when the lands formed part of the Greville Estate.
