Description
Greys Court features a Great Tower, an attached ruined tower, and surrounding walls located approximately 60 metres to the east. These structures date back to the 14th century and are constructed of flint with stone quoins and patches of brick, with the top of the Great Tower finished in coursed brick. The towers have a square plan and are supported by angle buttresses at the corners. The Great Tower includes a two-centre arched doorway on the west side, accessible from both the ground and first floors. The towers and walls exhibit irregular window openings. Additionally, there is a brick flat-arched fireplace in the linking wall. Historically, a licence to crenellate was granted in 1347 to Sir John de Grey.
