Editorial reading

The record follows the campaigns: a central block of the late sixteenth century, pavilions in the mid-seventeenth, linking ranges and a wing at its end, wings in the early nineteenth century, and a major restoration around 1930 that brought in the decor of a grand salon from a Rouen town house. The 1996 listing names the house, the orangery, the icehouse, the east and west barns and the remaining parts of the enclosure. The orangery and icehouse are the garden buildings the record gives; the garden itself is not described.
