The Garden

Charlton Down House was built in two stages – 1848 and 1938; while the barns, outbuildings and stables were all built in the 1840s. In 1938, Francis Lloyd bought the property, and much enlarged the house to the east (visible in the ashlar stone walls), converting it into a country house in its own right.

The walled garden, greenhouse, chicken enclosure and classical pool pavilion were built by the present owners, Neil and Julie Record, who have owned the house since 2009.
