This is a well-known 6 double bedroom, detached stone residence, located on a hilltop overlooking the surrounding countryside, now serving as a spacious family home, set within mature grounds (approx. 0.55 acres) of a former medieval manor house.

The site is a scheduled ancient monument, reflecting its archaeological importance.

The site historically owned by many Noble families, allies of King Edward IV during the Wars of the Roses, and famously linked some of the most powerful men and women of Elizabethan England. Surrounding land later became owned by the National Trust.
