Clopton House, English country house in Stratford-upon-Avon, United Kingdom.

The two-story mansion features a prominent south front with seven bays, while the central three sections project forward beneath a decorated pediment.

The Manor of Clopton, granted to the Clopton family in the 13th century, saw Sir John Clopton rebuild the current structure in the 17th century.

The residence maintains deep connections to English nobility, with former inhabitants including Hugh Clopton, who served as Lord Mayor of London in 1492.

The Grade II* listed building has been converted into residential apartments, preserving its architectural heritage while providing modern living spaces.

Gunpowder Plot conspirator Ambrose Rookwood resided in Clopton House during 1605, adding a layer of intrigue to its historical narrative.
