The grand east front put on after 1727 has been demolished. {2}{3} It was Thomas Williamson, rector of Westborough and Dry Doddington nearby, who purchased the Manor House (PRN 30144) and the Hall with their lands in 1674, and it was his descendants who built up the estate. The back of the Hall is probably seventeenth century - but the grander south front was obviously built upon by the Williamsons and became the principal house of the estate. The top storey was added in the early nineteenth century; it no doubt increased the accommodation required by a Victorian household, but it took away the charm of the earlier front. {4}
