Dewlish House, Grade I listed country house in Dewlish, England
Dewlish House is a large country residence in Dorset comprising multiple connected structures and grounds. The property contains stables, worker cottages, and various outbuildings arranged across parkland and formal gardens.
The house was built in 1702 as a Georgian mansion by Thomas Skinner. In the early 1800s it became home to a British Field Marshal for nearly 20 years.
The architecture reflects Queen Anne style elements with modifications made during the 1900s, including the removal of service wings.
The property spans a large area with separate access points to different buildings and sections. Comfortable footwear is recommended as exploring the gardens and grounds requires considerable walking.
Excavations on the grounds uncovered prehistoric mammoth fossils buried in the soil. These paleontological findings suggest the land has been shaped by ancient geological processes.
