Note

Derl Houghton: Ancestral home of the de Hoghton family since the Norman conquest, Hoghton Tower, a fortified hilltop Manor House is one of the most dramatic looking houses in the North of England. There have been three houses on the site

The present home was built almost entirely in the Tudor Elizabethan period (1560-1565) and is reached by a steep, straight avenue of over half a mile long.

Built in the 1720's by Britain's first Prime Minister, Sir Robert Walpole, Houghton Hall is one of the grandest surviving Palladian houses in England. At Houghton, Walpole created a magnificent showcase for the finest architects, craftsmen and painters of an elegant age. The work of architects James Gibbs and Colen Campbell was complemented by the superb interiors of William Kent and opulently furnished to reflect Walpole's status. Now lovingly restored to its former grandeur by the 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley, Houghton retains many of its original furnishings, allowing visitors the opportunity to step back in time and enjoy Houghton much as it may have been in Walpole's day.

The unique Cholmondeley Soldier Museum features over 20,000 model soldiers and is one of the most important in the world. It is an interesting and diverse collection with spectacular Napoleonic battle scenes commissioned by the late 6th Marques, and a selection of individual models, ranging from large china figures to tiny lead replicas.

Houghton is set in over 250 acres (142 ha) of fine parkland, home to over 1,000 head of white fallow deer. Visitors are able to wander at leisure through the rolling parkland to the church and stable black. The original walled garden has been recreated to feature an area devoted to fruit and vegetables, a herbaceous border and a formal rose-garden with over 150 varieties.

Location: Houghton is situated just off the A148 King's Lynn to Cromer road, close to the North Norfolk Coast, Norwich and Norfolk Broads. The location of this beautiful historic house is perfectly suited to existing transport facilities. It is specifically located on the A675 - six miles east of Preston. Road: M6 (Junction 28 or 29) M6 1 (Junction 8) M65 (Junction 3)¹

Hoghton Tower

The Hoghton family has been at Houghton since the 12th century, but the dramatic manor house that you can see today is primarily a product of the mid-Tudor period. The house is built in an elongated figure-8, encompassing two inner courtyards entered through a fiercely castellated gatehouse.

The house was completed by Thomas Hoghton in 1565, but Thomas, a Catholic, stayed in it only 4 years before fleeing to the Low Countries, where he died. Thomas' nephew Richard enjoyed rather more politically correct views, and earned the favour of James I, who visited Hoghton in 1617.

Sir Richard, who was hoping to convince the king to relieve him of money-losing alum mines, laid out the red carpet for James' visit - literally. Red carpeting was laid for the entire length of the half mile avenue leading to the house.

The king must have been impressed by the lavish welcome, and the feasting which followed, for he did buy the mines. An amusing but unsubstantiated tale has it that at the feast in the banqueting hall given in James' honour the king was so moved by the excellent loin of beef he was served that he took his sword and knighted it "Sir Loin", giving us the term 'sirloin'. Richard's good fortune did not last long; only a few years later he was imprisoned in Fleet Prison for debt.

Richard's son, Gilbert, fought for Charles I in the Civil War, though Gilbert's own son (named Richard, like his grandfather), chose the Roundhead cause, and Hoghton Tower was besieged by Parliamentary troops in 1643. Eventually the defenders capitulated, but when the Roundheads entered the house the powder magazine in the tower between the two courtyards exploded with terrifying force, killing over 100 Parliamentary men. The tower was never rebuilt.

Following in Richard Hoghton's footsteps, suceeding generations of Houghtons were fervent Presbyterian Dissenters, and the banqueting hall was often used as a Dissenting chapel (quite a change from the gaiety of entertaining the royal court).

Later generations of Hoghtons took a strong interest in parish affairs, and moved away from Hoghton Tower to be closer to the political action. Without them the house fell into disuse, and when Charles Dickens visited it in 1854 he found it in a depressing state of disrepair. The mood of the place did prompt Dickens to write a story "George Silverman's Explanation", in which the house features prominently.

Hoghton Tower was not restored until 1870, after a century of neglect. Despite the loss of many family portraits and collectibles in a fire, the work was finished in 1901, and visitors today can see several attractive rooms in a guided tour that lasts about 40 minutes. Highlights include excellent Queen Anne panelling, the galleried banqueting hall, good period furniture, and a doll house collection. You may also delve into a Tudor well house.

NOTE: Don't confuse Hoghton Tower with the similarly named Houghton House (Bedfordshire) or Houghton Hall (Norfolk)
