5.6.58 Slindon House

II*


The property of the National Trust, now occupied by Slindon College. The original
house on the site was a medieval palace of the Archbishops of Canterbury. Of this,
there only remains part of a tower in the garden to the north west of the house. The
house was then rebuilt by Sir Garet Kempe about 1560. It was altered in the C18 and
C19 and then again by Mervyn Macartney in 1921. It is a mixture of these periods.
The main portion is L-shaped with later additions to the north. The south front is
largely C18. Two storeys and attic. Six windows. Four dormers. Faced with flints.
Parapet. Flanked by octagonal turrets of C16 character with cupolas over. Sash
windows without glazing bars. The west front is of C16 date and character, as altered
in the C19 and C20. Three storeys and attic. Six windows. Three dormers. Two
three-storeyed bays and porch with two storeys over. Projecting wing at north end.
Casement windows.
