Background
History
The house was built around 1805 for Richard Congreve and remodelled in 1904 by Sir Charles Nicholson for Henry Neville Gladstone, son of William Ewart Gladstone. An orangery was added in 1910 to a design by Arthur Beresford Pite. In 2022 the house was refurbished in keeping with its listed status and is now home to a recruitment business. 16 new houses have been built in its grounds. The Friends of Burton Manor still maintain the outer gardens, which remain open to the public.
Architecture
The house is built in ashlar and hammer-dressed red sandstone with a roof of green slates. The chimney stacks are tall and ornate, built of stone and brick. The plan of the building is quadrangular with a central courtyard.
