History
[edit]The current house was built in 1720 for Sir Peter Mews[1] but was remodelled after a fire in 1777.[1][5] Additional alterations were made around 1905 by the landscape architect Harold Peto, who remodelled the interior in an early 18th-century style.[1]
When Sir Peter Mews died in 1726 the house eventually passed to his nephew George Ivison Tapps, whose descendants still occupy the house
