Introduction

The house was built in 1792 to designs by John Nash, and extensively remodelled from 1902 by Inigo Thomas. The walled garden was possibly built in 1795, and was certainly extant by 1830. The woodland walks and fountain garden were extant by 1889. There is also parkland, with lodges and a drive of the mid-19th century. The terraced gardens were designed by Inigo Thomas and constructed about 1904.
