The Chippenham Park Estate was acquired by Thomas Revett, a London merchant, in 1558. It passed to the Russell family around 1600 and the present house was commissioned by Edward Russell, 1st Earl of Orford in 1689. It was acquired by John Tharp in 1791 and remained in the ownership of the Tharp family until 1948 when it inherited by a nephew Basil Bacon.
