Cawthorpe Hall was built of locally quarried Barnack rag in 1819 and stands in two acres of lawns and gardens surrounded by mature trees. The house itself has rooms and windows of classic proportions with high ceilings and a gracious sense of space. It is best known as the former home of Robert Gardner (1850-1926), local bank manager turned artist who exhibited at the Royal Academy and who lived here until he died. During his tenancy he added a large studio with great atelier-style windows to catch the light for his painting.
