Biddesden House, Grade I listed manor in Chute Forest, England

The brick mansion spans three floors with seven bays, featuring stone decorations and a round turret at the northeast corner of the structure.

General John Richmond Webb acquired the manor in 1693 and constructed the current house between 1711 and 1712, replacing an earlier building.

The entrance hall rises through two floors and contains mid-18th-century wood panels, illuminated by three circular windows above the main entrance.

The property includes 26 hectares of grounds with formal gardens, parkland, and two walled gardens containing kitchen and ornamental sections.

The northeast turret houses a bell that General Webb obtained during the 1708 siege of Lille, marking a direct connection to military history.
