Nash Court

House. Built in 1713 and significantly altered in the late 18th century and mid-19th century. Constructed of red brick with ashlar dressings, featuring a slated front roof and tiled roof elsewhere. The house has two storeys and an attic, standing on a plinth with a plat band frieze, cornice, and balustrade. Quoins are present on slightly projecting wings and centre piers, with a shallow pediment over the central bay. The hipped roof has four raking dormers and six stacks along the ridge. The first floor contains six sashes with gauged and keyed heads, and a central tripartite sash with a bracketed cornice. On the ground floor are tripartite French doors to the left and right, four sashes with gauged and keyed heads, and a central half-glazed double door with a moulded, lugged, segment-headed surround. A Doric portico features columns in antis and a pierced parapet. The rear roofs retain early 18th-century tiling, with one segmental-headed dormer window; some areas showcase red and blue chequered brickwork.

The interior includes an early 18th-century staircase with a ramped and moulded handrail on barley-sugar balusters and Corinthian column-brylli principals, featuring an open string with brackets and an open well plan. A segmental pedimented doorcase leads to a principal upstairs room from the staircase landing. Several rooms and corridors boast Bolection moulded raised and fielded panelling. Early 18th-century vaulted cellars and a clasped purlin roof structure are also present. The remaining interior decoration is late 18th-century Neoclassical, featuring fine plastered and coloured ceilings, restored in the mid-20th century. The house contains lugged segmental marble fireplaces, enriched with scrolls, a pulvinated frieze, and a cornice. The entrance hall is characterized by an anthemion and egg and tongue frieze and cornice, a marble floor, and pilastered screens. Ornate late 19th-century central heating grills and large box heaters with pierced side panels are found in several rooms.

Originally built in 1713, the house was rebuilt after riot damage around 1715. Historical records suggest it was "fitted up with much taste in the modern style," possibly for Colonel Montressor, a former tenant of Belmont Park, Throwley. The house was restored before 1878, maintaining the main features depicted in a 1790 engraving. The architects remain unknown.
