Now part of Cheltenham College. Erected by J. R.Scott for himself in 1823, it was purchased whilst unfinished on the death of the owner by Lord Northwick, who completed the house and added the picture gallery, later open to the public. Rowe called it 'by far the noblest private mansion of which Cheltenham can boast'.
