Description
Newdigate House, now a club, along with its attached railings and boundary wall, was built around 1675 for Thomas Newdigate. The building features a stucco exterior with ashlar dressings and a hipped slate roof. It has a plinth, chamfered quoins, and a modillion eaves cornice. The house is three storeys high with attics and has a five-window range of 12-pane sash windows with moulded surrounds and alternating triangular and segmental pediments. Above these, there are five similar sashes with lugged architraves and fleurons, and three dormers with alternating pediments and 9-pane casements. The central entrance has a moulded ashlar doorcase with volutes, a broken segmental pediment, and a fielded six-panel door. On either side of the entrance, there are two 12-pane sashes with alternating pediments.
Inside, the entrance hall features full-height moulded wooden panels and cornice, along with an eight-panel door with a bolection moulded surround. The ground floor dining room showcases Adam-style plasterwork and two round skylights. There is a restored wooden dogleg staircase with stick balusters. The first floor contains two fully panelled rooms with moulded cornices and eight-panel doors.
Outside, there are attached crested wrought-iron railings with a central gateway and overthrow, likely designed by Francis Foulgham. The rendered plinth has ashlar coping. To the left, there is a boundary wall made of brick with slab coping, which includes a wooden doorcase with an entablature and a six-panel door, measuring approximately 10 meters long. Notably, Marshal Tallard was held prisoner here after the Battle of Blenheim.
