Acland, Landkey, Grade I listed building in Landkey, England
Acland stands as a substantial estate with Tudor architectural elements, featuring a wooden porch dated 1591 and a private chapel within its grounds.
The estate originated in 1155 as the primary residence of the Acland family, who maintained ownership until 1945 and held nearly 40,000 acres in Devon.
