Forde House, Grade I listed manor house in Newton Abbot, England.
The E-shaped stone building features wood carvings, ornate plasterwork ceilings with floral designs, and a front lawn facing Torquay Road.
Built in 1550 and expanded in 1610 by Sir Richard Reynell, the house provided lodging to King Charles I in 1625 and Oliver Cromwell in 1646.
The Great Chamber contains sophisticated plasterwork decorations, representing one of the finest preserved examples of this craft in southwest England.
Teignbridge District Council manages the property, offering spaces for weddings, conferences, business meetings, and guided historical tours throughout the year.
The first-floor Orange Room received its name after William, Prince of Orange, stayed there during his journey to the crown in 1688.
