Neighbourhood information

Described as a 'timeless work of Tudor history', Knowlton was built in 1585 by Sir Thomas Peyton Baronetcy; the estate became the property of Sir John Narborough in the 18th century before being passed to the D'Aeth family in the 19th century. A working farm, Knowlton is under the stewardship of the Fox-Pitt family, one of Britain's best-known equestrian families and whose passion for agriculture, environment, conservation and preservation will see it carefully handed to the next generation.
