More about this scene
The original house, owned by the Napier family, burnt down in 1742, and the wealthy Humphrey Sturt, who had married an heiress, inherited the estate in 1765. He at once embarked on a programme of rebuilding and extension, doubling the size of the house, and moved the entire village of More Crichel except for St Mary`s Church, a mile away to the south in order to landscape the surrounding park. The displaced inhabitants were rehoused in a new village at Newtown, in the parish of Witchampton.
