The Ashburnham family occupied a house on this site from before the Conquest until the death of Lady Catherine Ashburnham in 1953. It was a large mansion of several periods, of which the main portion was C18, refaced in 1845 circa. Most of this was demolished about- 1955. What remains is the south front, which retains its original form of a central block and flanking wings of lower elevation but both centre and wings have been reduced in height.
