Gayhurst House, English country house in Gayhurst, England.
The rectangular stone mansion features three stories with seven bays, constructed from limestone and includes projecting wings with a Doric-columned porch.
Sir Everard Digby, executed in 1606 for his involvement in the Gunpowder Plot, completed the expansion of Gayhurst House before his death.
The interior design follows Anglo-French Renaissance patterns with detailed fireplace carvings created by sculptor Thomas Nicholls during the Victorian period.
The mansion, now divided into residential flats since 1979, stands near Newport Pagnell, approximately five miles north of Milton Keynes central area.
During World War II, Gayhurst House functioned as a secret Bombe outstation for Bletchley Park, housing machines used for decoding German messages.
