Historical note:
Formerly a smaller home to a local Lord of the Manor but in the 1720’s a new mansion was built in the large estate grounds for The 1st Earl John Ligonier who made it his home for many decades and then subsequently bought by Harvey Christian Combe in 1806, of Combe Delafield and Co Brewery and once elected Lord Mayor of London. Upon his death in 1818, he bequeathed the house to his son who subsequently left it to a nephew, Charles Combe. This house was destroyed by fire in the early 1870’s and a new house was built on the same foundations and completed in 1873 to a design by Edward Middleton Barry, third son of Sir Charles Barry, architect of the Palace of Westminster. The Combe family vacated the house in the 1930’s and then leased it to the Eagle Star Insurance Group as offices until 1958. In 1979 Logica leased the house and outbuildings, latterly buying the freehold and restoring the buildings. The house was ultimately sold to Beechcroft which converted the house and estate in to what we have today.
