Summary Bought by the current owners in 2007, Newton House is a superb example of a restored Grade I listed Jacobean Manor house standing in magnificent parklands grounds. The owners have spent years sympathetically restoring the house and improving the internal rooms and configuration, whilst also bringing the property firmly into the 21st Century with modern services throughout. They have also spent considerable time and investment enhancing the gardens and grounds which are intersected by the River Yeo. The parkland and formal gardens are complemented by grazing land and supported by a number of domestic and commercial outbuildings. The owners have recently built two large garage / show rooms with space for twelve vehicles. They have also converted various outbuildings to create a very successful business producing award-winning dry gin, as well as converting the stables and coach house into a stylish gin bar and function suite. The Gardeners Cottage is currently used as a highly sought-after holiday letting unit. Both of these properties are positioned away from the main house, ensuring privacy for private owners.

Notable rooms are the Great Hall, the ‘Justice Room’ which makes a fine study, the drawing room which is double aspect with a magnificent decorative ceiling frieze and the dining room, ideal for lavish entertaining with ample space. The owners have also installed a new bar and opened up a new link to the courtyard to improve the flow of the accommodation. The family kitchen has a mezzanine dining and breakfast area and adjoins the original ‘Museum kitchen’ with a plethora of features and links to a separate china cupboard and bar. The butler’s pantry, dairy / larder and wine cellar are all easily accessible from the kitchen which also has double doors out to the rear walled gardens. Typically for a house of this age, a number of the first floor rooms are also arranged as living rooms and there is a fine family sitting room, home office and a home cinema. The beautifully appointed principal bedroom suite is a classic example of the owners’ consideration for space and high quality finish, occupying the foremost room on the first floor with two flanking dressing rooms and a sumptuous en-suite bathroom. Unusually for a house of this age, the balance of bedrooms and bathrooms is excellent with a further seven or eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms. Reception Bedroom Bathroom Kitchen/Utility Storage Terrace Recreation GROUND FLOOR FIRST FLOOR NEWTON HOUSE Approximate Gross Internal Floor Area 1,405.6 sq m / 15,129 sq ft (Excluding Courtyard) Including Limited Use Area: 63.6 sq m / 685 sq ft SECOND FLOOR This plan is for guidance only and must not be relied upon as a statement of fact. Attention is drawn to the Important Notice on the last page of the text of the Particulars Gardens and Grounds The property actually spans the Somerset and Dorset borders, extending to about 62 acres in total. The parkland and gardens surrounding the house are Grade II listed in their own right. Original 18th Century hamstone entrance piers guard the entrance to the long tarmac carriage drive which leads to the house, flanked on one side by a row of oak trees and on the other by mature woodland. At the front of the house the tarmac drive sweeps around through twin pairs of hamstone pillars capped with ornate finials onto a gravelled driveway with plenty of parking for guests and visitors. Mature oaks are interspersed across the large expanse of grassed parkland which lies between the drive and the River Yeo which flows through the grounds, with pasture and farmland on the eastern side of the river including a number of mature trees, mainly oaks, and small areas of woodland and spinneys with a long wooded bank. The formal gardens are a magnificent part of Newton House and lie predominantly to the east and south of the house, with parterres, garden rooms, avenues, rose gardens, productive vegetable beds and pergolas. The land offers rough shooting opportunities with belts of woodland, wildfowl on the river and there is coarse fishing on the River Yeo (some single and double bank). Outbuildings THE GARDENER’S COTTAGE AND COACH HOUSE The former stable block and coach house lies to the south of the house, accessed from a spur off the main drive. It is Grade II listed and constructed of hamstone elevations under a Welsh slate roof. As their gin business has developed, the owners have converted this building into an amazing space, comprising a restaurant / café with kitchen, bar, staff office and guest toilets. They currently let this out for functions and parties, as well as using it as the base for their business. Various stores and outbuildings provide stores, workshops, a distillery and potting shed. There is a modern 90 ft timber framed greenhouse (copying an original design) within the walled kitchen garden. The owners have also recently finished a large courtyard comprising two garage / show rooms with space for twelve vehicles, together with ancillary stores and WCs. The Gardener’s Cottage Grade II listed and constructed in 1711, it is located to the south of the main house with its own garden and has been completely refurbished, comprising a hall, sitting room, kitchen/dining room, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. The owners currently let this out for holiday rentals. Newton House Gin (available by separate negotiation) Newton House Gin is a small batch hand crafted gin which is distilled, bottled and labelled at Newton House. It is the brain child of the current owners and excitingly, even though it is still in its early stages of production, it has been awarded Gold Medal in the prestigious World Gin Awards in the category for London Dry Gin. They have designed a bespoke website for the business: https://www.newtonhousegin.co.uk/. As described above, the owners have based the business in a the former stables and coach house, utilising various outbuildings to create an established business set‐up for this award winning gin, including a distillery and hospitality centre.

  • 6. the Tudors and Jacobethan England
    6. The Tudors and Jacobethan England History Literature Click here for a Tudor timeline. The royal website includes a history of the Tudor Monarchs [and those prior and post this period]. Art This site will guide you to short articles on the Kings and Queens of the Tudor Music Dynasty. Another general guide to Tudor times can be found here. Architecture Click here for a fuller account of Elizabeth. One of the principle events of the reign of Elizabeth was the defeat of the Spanish Armada (here's the BBC Armada site). Elizabeth's famous (and short) speech before the battle can be found here. England's power grew mightily in this period, which is reflected in the lives and achievements of contemporary 'heroes' such as Sir Francis Drake, fearless fighter against the Spanish who circumnavigated the globe, and Sir Walter Raleigh (nowadays pronounced Rawley), one of those who established the first British colonies across the Atlantic (and who spelt his name in over 40 different ways...). Raleigh is generally 'credited' with the commercial introduction of tobacco into England .about 1778, and possibly of the potato. On a lighter note, information on Elizabethan costume is available here (including such items as farthingales and bumrolls). Literature Drama and the theatre The Elizabethan age is the golden age of English drama, for which the establishment of permanent theatres is not least responsible. As performances left the inn-yards and noble houses for permanent sites in London, the demand for drama increased enormously. While some of the smaller theatres were indoors, it is the purpose-built round/square/polygonal buildings such as The Theatre (the first, built in 1576), the Curtain (late 1570s?), the Rose (1587), the Swan (1595), the Fortune (1600) and of course the Globe (1599) that are most characteristic of the period.

  • An Example from Weston-Super-Mare
    How Heritage can underpin Placemaking – an example from Weston-super-Mare (or......The Slow Drip Feed and The Wild Splashy Fountain....................) What’s that It’s a good idea to do both of these things then? Hello! This is who we are Our official name is the North Somerset Council Placemaking & Growth Development Team This is where Not exactly a snappy title is it – most people just know us as “the Weston team”, or the “ask Rachel/Chris/Cara/Samantha/Edward, we work - they will know” team! Rachel (Development and Regeneration Programme Manager) Chris (Principal Project Officer) Cara (Heritage Action Zone Project Officer) Samantha (Communications Officer) Edward (Programme Support Officer) Sadly, Samantha and Edward have had to stay in Weston to hold the fort – but the rest of us are here. Our Journey How did we get here? There was a lack of recognition that Weston had any architectural and historic merit – let alone what we could use it for. Overall ingrained perceptions – “Heritage is boring” “Heritage will stop us doing stuff” “Heritage is a waste of money – it doesn’t do anything” “No point – it’s only Weston. Not like its Bath or anything” It all started with an Urban Panel visit – we had to get other people to tell us Weston was architecturally and historically a great place! Tactics – five What worked for us key themes 1. Heritage, Arts & Culture are usually all mixed together and are hard to separate – so don’t try to 2. Bring your key stakeholders on board 3. Start to empower the local community 4.
