Old large scale Ordnance Survey maps show this house as Beechwood, and it was only in the edition of 1936 that it was shown as the Archbishop's House. By 1952 it had a private Roman Catholic Chapel in its grounds. The house is now in Acrefield Park, with the current housing estate built in the house's grounds. It is a Grade II Listed Building.
