Historical NoteMalmesbury was a fortified town before the Norman
Conquest and was designated as the first royal borough in
1086. It is dominated by the Abbey which was founded in
the 7th Century and most of the land in the area was in the
Abbey’s possession.
DescriptionBurton Hill House was originally a substantial stone manor
house built in the late 17th Century. In 1842 Mr John
Cockerell was the owner of the property and employed his
brother, the renowned architect Charles Robert Cockerell
to design a new house. Following a fire it was rebuilt and
subsequently it was purchased by Colonel C W Miles in
1849.
It is an impressive Victorian house. It is mentioned in
the Wiltshire edition of Pevsner and is a Grade II Listed
property.
The principle elevation has deep gables with battlemented
parapets over and attractive deep bays. The garden room
(Garden House) has stone mullioned windows with a
fretted parapet over. The family room (former ballroom)
extension (Park House) was built to a complementary
design and the west elevation has a tall projecting twelve
light window enjoying the views.
The interior was built to a high specification. The double
height octagon entrance hall (Burton Hill House) has a
Gothic fireplace, fine compartmented ceiling and arched
openings. To the southeast is a reception room with a Louis
XV style marble chimney piece and the west reception
room has a classical chimney piece with carved oak leaves.
The family room (Garden House) is Jacobean in style
with an elaborate chimney piece and arcaded panelling
and matching plaster work ceiling. The family room (Park House) is in similar Jacobean style with a compartmented
plaster work ceiling bearing the Miles coat of arms in the
centre. The open staircase hall (Burton Hill House) has a
fine substantial oak staircase, Jacobean in style with heavy
new posts and heavy handle rails. The upper rooms retain
some fireplaces, joinery and plasterwork.
The grounds are well landscaped and provide a mature
setting for each of the houses.
Until 2008 Burton Hill House was run as a charity home.
The present owners have undertaken a substantial and
painstaking planning process now undertaken by Russell
Taylor Architects of London, to convert this fine building
into a number of residential units to take full advantage
of the building’s many fine features and the delightful
landscaped gardens.
SpecificationThe current owners have divided the three houses and laid
on the services (main gas, electricity and water) so that each
house can be developed without the necessity of agreeing
works with the neighbouring properties. The existing
drainage arrangements will remain, with a shared septic tank.
Substantial works have been carried out including replacing
all the lead on the roofs.
Future plansThe owners are in the process of converting the north wing
to form units 4 and 5 which will have some well planned
accommodation. The chapel and adjoining garage block
also has consent for development into three separate units.
