Description

Champion Court is a hall house that has been converted into a residence, dating from the 13th, 15th, 16th, and 19th centuries. It features a timber frame with rendered surfaces and applied timbers, as well as structural flint, topped with plain tiled roofs. The building is two storeys high with a hipped roof that has gablets and a stack at the rear center. To the right, there is a recessed hipped two-storey extension. The main range has three glazing bar sash windows, while the extension has one on the first floor. On the ground floor, there are two glazing bar sashes and a tripartite glazing bar sash. To the left, half-glazed double doors are set in a gabled porch.

Inside, the hall house has been significantly altered, but it retains features from the 16th-century extension, including dragon beams, jetty-brackets, and a beaded ovolo moulded window, which are now all internal elements. The flint and brick cellar contains a 13th-century recess with a moulded trefoil head, evidence of a moulded hood and moulded colonnettes, which may indicate the presence of a piscina for a medieval chapel. This building was the chief manor of Newnham and was the home of Fulk de Newenham, the founder of Davington Priory in 1153.
