- Cover photo description:
- Compton House was the seat of the Penruddocke or Penruddock family from the mid-16th century until 1930. The present house may occupy the site of a medieval manor house; Pevsner saw fragments of medieval work. It was refitted internally by Sir Edward Penruddocke in the late 17th century and rebuilt externally in 1780 by Charles Penruddocke. The drawing room from about 1700 has panelling and rich decoration in Grinling Gibbons style, with a plaster ceiling from the same period. In the dining room, part of the 1780 additions, is a plaster ceiling in Adam style. The house is a Grade I listed building. The house is set in parkland, once a medieval deer park. It overlooks an artificial lake formed by damming a stream running north into the Nadder.[15] Landscaping in the 18th century was by Capability Brown.[1
