Description

Easton Neston House, Northamptonshire is a Grade I listed mansion built by Nicholas Hawksmoor between 1685 and1695. Recently sold, the house was in need of repair and renovation after many years of minimal maintenance and inappropriate alterations. In addition, following the removal of tapestries long associated with the house, there was a need to introduce panelling to fill those voids. A number of twentieth century additions were removed to improve or reinstate earlier layouts. Recording was carried out prior to and during alterations.
