Savay Farm, Grade I listed hall house in Denham, England
Description
Savay Farm is a medieval farmhouse featuring a timber-framed structure with red brick infill and a traditional H-shaped layout across two stories, topped with an old tile roof. The building reflects construction methods typical of its era and maintains its original framework.
History
The building was constructed around 1300 and remained with the Durdent family until 1512, when ownership changed. It gained Grade I listed status in 1955 due to its architectural importance.
Culture
The interior walls display murals from the early 1600s depicting biblical scenes with figures dressed in period clothing from that era. These artworks, along with cast-iron fireplace elements from different times, show how people in past centuries decorated their homes.
Practical
The property is privately owned and not open to the public, though it can be viewed from the surrounding roads in the Denham area. The rural setting makes it easy to locate among the local countryside.
