Charlton House, Jacobean manor house in Royal Borough of Greenwich, England
The red brick building features an H-shaped layout with stone dressings, grand chimneys, symmetrical wings, and ornate architectural details throughout the structure.
The residence, constructed between 1607 and 1612, served as home to Sir Adam Newton, who tutored Henry, Prince of Wales, son of King James I.
The property maintains a collection of historical artifacts, hosts exhibitions about Jacobean architecture, and functions as a central location for community gatherings.
The house opens on weekdays from 9:30 AM to 3:30 PM and Saturdays from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM, with the gardens accessible from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
A mulberry tree within the grounds, planted around 1608 under orders from King James I, stands as one of the oldest specimens in the United Kingdom.
