This is Coughton Court, home of the Throckmorton family since 1409. It holds a unique place in English history with its close connections to the Gunpowder Plot of 1605 (yes i did copy this from the Coughton Court website http://www.coughtoncourt.co.uk/). It is an amazing house, unfortunately, when my partner, my friend, her mum and i got there, we were only able to see the house as the gardens (the main reason we had gone there) were closed. It wasn't clear if the gardens are generally closed through the winter, or if they were just closed to to the recent bad weather.
