Ashwell Bury, English country house in Ashwell, England.

The white brick structure extends across two stories with five sash windows and features a central entrance adorned with a Doric-style doorcase.

Built before 1836 for Edward George Fordham, the house underwent significant modifications between 1922 and 1926 under the direction of architect Sir Edwin Lutyens.

The interior contains a grand staircase hall with an octagonal dome, exemplifying the architectural preferences of early 20th-century English residential design.

The Grade II listing status requires any modifications or renovations to maintain the historical authenticity of both the building and its gardens.

The staircase hall incorporates mirror glass on one wall while featuring glazed internal windows on the remaining three sides of the first floor.
