Background

History

Stone House was built in c.1557 for John Milward. The freehold was bought from him in 1608 by a new owner who had the initials "WNC" and the date carved in a tablet over the porch. The building was Grade II* listed on 24 June 1974. The Stone House is one of the oldest houses in Allesley Village and is reputed to be on the original site of the Pack-horse Gatehouse of the Allesley castle.

Architecture

The house contains features from various phases of building work through the 16th and 17th centuries. There is an original 16th century doorway at the rear of the house, and an ashlar plinth from this period surrounds the main block of the house. The north wing is rendered with roughcast, which may have originally been used on the whole building. The front section of the house is now bare sandstone. The garden is walled with 16th and 17th century elements, and the gate piers bear 18th century ball finials.
