Hinchingbrooke House, Historic house museum in Huntingdon, England
Hinchingbrooke House features Tudor architecture with stone walls, large windows, and multiple chimneys rising from its structured roofline.
The building originated as an 11th-century Augustinian nunnery before its transformation into a residence following the 1538 dissolution of monasteries.
The house maintains connections to English nobility as the former residence of the Earls of Sandwich and the Cromwell family through generations.
The property functions as part of Hinchingbrooke School while offering spaces for weddings, conferences, and educational events throughout the year.
A fireplace within the building displays the initials of Richard Williams, who received the property grant during the dissolution of monasteries.
