Scriventon House

Welcome!

When you look at the house and garden, you see them as they are today. If you look at the garden in winter, you don't see what it looks like in summer. If you look at it in autumn, you don't see it in spring...

So here are pictures of the garden from all the times of year when you haven't seen it. Most of the pictures were taken in 2004. The aerial photograph on the right dates from around 2000.

The current Google Earth picture is here. (If you haven't got Google Earth, you can download it from here).

The house

The brochure from the 2006 sale by Savills

The house is being greatly changed by the new owners, so by now the floorplan will be a historical document. It was drawn by the owner and a friend in 1928 but the layout stayed the same until 2007.
