Chastleton House, Jacobean country estate in Chastleton, England
The Cotswold stone mansion features a 72-foot Long Gallery, classical paneling, Renaissance details, and traditional tapestries throughout its preserved interiors.
Walter Jones commissioned the construction between 1607 and 1612, using his wealth from the legal profession and his family's Welsh wool trading background.
The property maintains its original Jacobean layout with formal gardens, reflecting the design principles outlined in Gervase Markham's horticultural texts from the 1600s.
The National Trust maintains the property under a controlled decay policy, allowing visitors to experience authentic period features without modern restoration interventions.
The house holds the Juxon Bible, reportedly present at Charles I's execution, and established competitive croquet with courts laid by Walter Whitmore-Jones in 1860s.
