References to what became Brasted Place that date back to about 1300, and also its owners including Sir Robert Heath, Chief Justice of King’s Bench during the English Civil War. The main part of the present house was designed by Robert Adam for Dr John Turton, physician to George III, and was later let out to Napoleon III. Subsequent owners included William Tipping, Leslie Urquart and John Howeson, all of whom have interesting, and in some respects colourful background stories. Brasted Place was then a theological college and headquarters of a building company before being converted into apartments in the 1990’s.
