Chilston Park, 17th century country house in Boughton Malherbe, England.
The red-brick building features two projecting side bays, a pedimented central bay, and a Diocletian window across its symmetrical front facade.
The estate belonged to William Fitz-Hamon in the 12th century before passing through several noble families, including the Hoese family who held it until 1545.
The entrance hall displays an early 18th-century black-and-white stone floor, while four rooms contain moulded plaster ceilings from the second quarter of the 18th century.
The property extends across 78 hectares of parkland, with formal gardens containing two lakes and historical structures accessible through designated pathways.
The central staircase incorporates carved panelling dating from approximately 1540, representing one of the earliest architectural elements preserved in the house.
