The house was built in 1725 and named after the family who lived on the site in the 13th century. It is noted for its brickwork and has a dramatic front elevation attributed to Thomas Archer. It is located in 13 acres (53,000 m2) of grounds. There is parkland to the front and a garden to the rear with wide lawns, mature shrub borders, an orchard for wild flowers and a walled garden. There are extensive views over the Kentish landscape of park, farmland, and hop-gardens. The house, with its high ceilings and oak panelling, provides an ideal setting for music performed on period instruments and the house and instruments have been used regularly for recordings by leading exponents of early music such as Trevor Pinnock, Simon Preston and Nigel North.
