Berryfield (or Bearfield) House was built in the early 19th century. It was the residence of various grandees until the 1930s. It had been empty for some time when it was requisitioned by Wiltshire County Council in August 1939 for use as a maternity hospital, in readiness for the arrival of evacuees and their mothers. In 1979 it became Bradford-on-Avon Hospital. After the hospital closed in 2006 the site was developed for housing. The main house was converted for domestic use and houses built in the grounds. Berryfield House was Grade II listed in August 1974.
