Earlier Houses: There was probably an earlier house on, or near, the site of the 18th century house.

House & Family History: After the house was demolished in the 1930s the stables were converted into a home for the Pauncefort‐Duncombe family; the stables themselves were demolished in the 1970s.

Collections: The Pauncefort‐Duncombes purchased much furniture at the famous 1848 auction of the contents of Stowe House; one of these pieces, a circa 1730 settee possibly made by Benjamin Goodison (see "Images" section), was sold at the contents auction of Great Brickhill November 10–15, 1919 and is today in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
