Background
History
The club reports that the house was built in the early 17th Century and a mulberry tree in the garden was planted by Oliver Cromwell, at the time of the Putney Debates in 1647. Other sources suggest the building dates back to circa 1730, being built or rebuilt by the Huguenot refugee Jacques Badouin from Nîmes, France. A west wing was added in 1760. An image from 1915 shows landscaped gardens and there is memorial in the building to those lost in World War I. The building was Grade II listed in 1955. In 2016 it was refurbished and reopened as a venue, it is approved for wedding ceremonies.
