Huddington Court

Huddington Court is a manor house with a T-shaped plan and timber-framed walls covered in painted brick, supported by a stone plinth. The roof is covered with plain tiles spanning across four bays.

The estate became closely connected to dramatic events in the early 17th century when the family harbored fugitives there. This link to that period makes the place a significant historical site.

The Great Parlour displays refined architectural details from the 16th century that visitors can still see today. These elements reflect the wealth and taste of the family who lived here.

The building stands in a rural location and is visible from the outside, though access inside may be limited. Visitors should check beforehand when visits are possible and whether the interior is open to the public.

Two hidden rooms are concealed within the house that once served as refuge spaces in dangerous times. One of these rooms is disguised as an ordinary door while the other is hidden behind wooden paneling.
