Now roofless and dilapidated, this former mansion largely dates from the nineteenth century. Its decline into its current ruinous condition began in the 1950s, when, after lead was stolen from its roof, the owners took the decision to pull down the actual roof. After that the house was used as a hen litter and acquired the nickname "Leghorn Hotel".
