Description

Slindon House is a Grade II* listed property owned by the National Trust and currently occupied by Slindon College. The original structure on this site was a medieval palace belonging to the Archbishops of Canterbury, of which only part of a tower remains in the garden to the northwest of the house. The house was rebuilt by Sir Garet Kempe around 1560 and has undergone alterations in the 18th and 19th centuries, as well as further changes by Mervyn Macartney in 1921.

The main portion of the house is L-shaped, with later additions to the north. The south front, primarily from the 18th century, features two storeys and an attic, with six windows and four dormers. It is faced with flints and has a parapet, flanked by octagonal turrets of 16th-century character topped with cupolas. The sash windows do not have glazing bars. The west front dates from the 16th century, altered in the 19th and 20th centuries, and consists of three storeys and an attic, with six windows and three dormers. It includes two three-storeyed bays and a porch with two storeys above, along with a projecting wing at the north end, featuring casement windows.
