- The Grade II listed Manor House is a mixture of 15th, 16th, 18th and 19th century architecture. Until fairly recently the estate had been running functions and events including weddings, conferences and afternoon tea since the 1960s.
From 1848 -1962 the Estate was owned by the 'Locker-Lampson family'.
Frederick Locker Lampson had five children from two marriages.
Frederick’s son, Commander Oliver Stillingfeet Locker-Lampson also had a literary career in journalism before he was elected to the House of Commons as a Conservative Unionist in cc1910.
In cc1914 - Oliver received a commission in the Royal Navy Volunteer Reserve during WW1, and he served on the Western Front and in Russia, commanding the Russian armoured car squadrons.
During his travels in the Great War, Oliver became entwined in Russian politics, and there are stories circulating suggesting that he was asked to participate in the assassination of Rasputin.
Becoming close to the Tsar of Russia, he agreed to help smuggle him to safety in the West after abdication..
After the war, Oliver fought against fascism in both Britain and in Europe, serving with the Home Guard in WW2 and was awarded the Distinguished Service Order.
He was one of the few Conservative politicians to support Churchill during the 1930s and they developed a trustworthy friendship.
While Oliver was in service, the Ministry of Defence requisitioned the Manor House and Churchill spent many hours there.
The building also ran as a care home - which looked after 17 elderly residents

This was a magical place where I once grew up, was very emotional to see the place again all these years later and watching you guys tred in the same steps as I did when I was 4 to the age of21. This lovely home holds so many memories of my childhood and the people I knew there. Well done lads for giving me this gem of a look back in time feeling. Thank you so much.
As a British borne Latvian I have some fond memory's of this place.
I stayed here one summer holiday when it was owned by the Latvian welfare fund as my mum worked as a care nurse for the elderly residents
This was late 90s.I remember playing in the grounds and going down into the bar it had a cd juke box I used to put on all sorts from fat boy slim to spice girls much to the annoyance of the local punters haha
I used to work here and I always felt someone was watching me
Like a manager, ...or a spooky presence ?
Very good with a bit of humour, loved Chris's history lesson at the bar 🍺
This was a lovely explore 👌
I knew about Rowfant House many years ago, as my ancestors owned it. Thomas Whitfield (his Coat of Arms are in the glass over the stairs, and he submitted his pedigree to Royal College of Arms on Queen Victoria Street over 400 years ago) was a London lawyer. His son, Rev. Henry Whitfield sailed to America and helped to found Guilford, Connecticut. Henry Whitfield's home is a museum. Henry Whitfield sailed back to England several years later, died and was buried in Winchester Cathedral. His daughter, Abigail Whitfield married Rev. James Fitch in America. I descend from that couple. I commissioned a watercolor of Rowfant House several years ago. Mrs. Sarah Blackett-Ord painted Rowfant House and sent it to me. It hangs on my living room wall today. I live in Kansas. Mrs. Blackett-Ord lives at Whitfield Hall, co: Northumberland, England. Thanks for the video; however, I have such sadness, now.
Hi Thanks for your reply, wow !! - that's a lot to take in. I fully understand your sadness.. its a great shame the building is now abandoned and looking run down compared to how it was. A friend of mine went to a wedding reception there when it was in its prime and remembers it being very grand inside. Hopefully it'll be restored and not turned into flats etc.. I'd like to see the painting, thanks again for your reply and for watching our video 🙏
Thanks for the reply. I also have hanging on my wall, a copy of Samuel Hieronymus Grimm's watercolor of Rowfant House that he painted in 1787. I think I purchased it from the British Library. Also, I have a watercolor painted by Mrs. Sarah Blackett-Ord titled RandleHolme, a bastle near Alston a few miles south of Whitfield Hall. A junior branch from the main Whitfield line owned it; then, that branch moved south to East Sussex, then west to West Sussex where Robert Whitfield built Rowfant House. I purchased all three (Rowfant House painted about 10 years ago; Copy of a painting of Rowfant House by Grimm, 1787; and, RandleHolme also painted by Mrs. Blackett-Ord about eight years ago.) Mrs. Blackett-Ord wrote me not to send out images of her two watercolors of Rowfant House and RandleHolme. I can e mail her and ask for permission to send those two (I don't know legally if I can send out an image of the British Library's copy of Rowfant House, 1787 because I purchased that copy they sent to me on a disc) if you really want a copy. I might be able to send those in an e mail attachment from my own e mail if she gives permission which may only be for your personal benefit.D. Jones
Great video
Thank you 😎😎👌
amazing and smooth video! any chance you will be going back to the old cinema in Colchester as a revisit? (as i didn't have chance to comment on that video)
Fab video
Thank you 🙏👍👍 this was a really fun explore and the architecture and shear amount of rooms were incredible !! We are glad you enjoyed it 👌
⚡️STAY TUNED⚡️
Nice video guys
Thanks Soup ✔
Does anyone know the current state of this place? looking to explore it maybe.
why were you blurring thing out ?
It was an attempt to disguise where the place was as we wanted to protect it as far as possible.. however in the first few scenes I missed a blatant sign - and so adjusted the title as well as included the history on our Facebook page etc.. it was too late to re-edit the video as it had already got likes and comments... 👍
I did not know the guy in the yellow jacket was a plumber
A plumber ?
Looked like you blurred out his ass crack when going through the window ... you know the joke ... @@DE-eVOLVED
This must be an old video as the place has been smashed up now and sealed
Its not smashed up at all and there were no signs of vandalism either ...video is from late 2023
olivers army by elivis costello is about the same evil oliver, right?
Elvis Costello wrote "Oliver's Army" in cc1978 on a plane coming back from Belfast. It was the first time he went to the city, he was shocked to see very young soldiers from the British army walking around with loaded machine guns.
The song covers Northern Ireland's troubles, the end of the British empire, and life in the army. Also it was after Oliver's career.. But a cool song non the less 👍
