Cadhay House

Cadhay House is a Grade I listed stone mansion from the 16th century, built on the site of an earlier house. It is two storeys high with attics and features a slate roof. The north front has two stepped gables, each with an external chimney that has offsets. Flanking the slightly projecting two-storey porch, which also has a stepped gable, are two similar chimneys. The porch features a pedimented doorhood, and the door opening is surrounded by rusticated stonework.

Significant alterations were made by Peere Williams, who purchased the house in 1736, adding many Georgian features. The east front includes two flanking three-storey bays with gables, finials, and stone mullion windows, while the centre features a five-sided bay that houses the staircase. The garden front displays two gables with external chimneys and a central two-storey porch with three-centred arches on either side of the door.

At the heart of the building is an enclosed court known as the "Court of the Sovereigns," where carved figures of Henry VIII and his three children stand beneath fine ribbed canopies with pilasters over the doors on each side. Inside, the hall has been roofed over, but its original ceiling remains intact, featuring a beautifully coved plaster design. A well-crafted carved stone fireplace is present, and the hall's beams are visible in the room above, where the hammer beams have been removed but the semi-circular principals are moulded. The Elizabethan gallery is preserved on the first floor at the south side of the house. An article featuring illustrations of Cadhay House was published in Country Life on January 18, 1913.
