The house was built in 1872 for Horace Dormer Trelawny and designed by the Chester architect John Douglas.[2] In 1907 it was damaged by fire and following this it was rebuilt and extended, the architect again being John Douglas; at this time the owner was Thorneycroft Vernon.[3] In the later part of the 20th century it was in use as a nursing home.[1][4] Its stable courtyard, also designed by John Douglas, is listed at Grade II.[5]
