II*
Surviving part of large Tudor house. Built 1583-6. Burned by Royalists in 1644 and rebuilt 1669-83. Partly dismantled in 1782. Stone rubble with freestone dressings. Slate roof with gabled ends with stone coping. Original house was probably E-shaped on plan and all that remains is the south west wing and a short section of the main range. Two storeys. South west elevation in seven window range. Four-light stone mullion windows with four-centred arch lights and leaded panes. External and corbelled chimney stacks on south west side. The east side of south west wing has six-light chamfered mullion window and two-centred arch doorway to cellars without capitals. Small two-light window to side. The north east wing has large 5-light mullion/transom window. The interior is said to have been stripped. Although once thought to have been, it was probably not the Birthplace of John Churchill first Duke of Marlborough. However he was baptised in the Chapel qv.
