Built around 1598 by Sir Edward Phelips, this stately three-floored mansion is constructed from local Ham Hill stone, showcasing the wealth and nobility of its era.
The intricate mullioned windows and Tudor-style design are a testament to the historical significance of this estate, once belonging to a Master of the Rolls to Queen Elizabeth I. The picturesque setting against the rolling hills of Somerset adds to its allure as a quintessential English manor house.
