With origins recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 and the principal fabric of the present house dating predominantly from the 16th century, Dukes Manor has evolved through almost a millennium of occupation. Its architectural story is written into every room: exposed oak framing and beams, handsome fireplaces, decorative panelling, hand-tooled cornicing, leaded-light windows, solid oak doors and a fine timber staircase are complemented by later additions that have been thoughtfully integrated into the historic fabric.

Modern infrastructure has been discreetly incorporated to support contemporary country-house living, including oil-fired central heating, three-phase electricity, a house generator, electric entrance gates and a Chubb-monitored alarm system.
