[1] Newe House was built in 1622 by Sir Robert Bright and today the façade of the house remains largely unmodified.
Sir Robert had bought the land surrounding Pakenham from the Bacon family several years before.
In the late 1640s it was sold to Sir William Spring, who had been a prominent Parliamentarian during the Civil War.
The Spring family coat-of-arms is still apparent above the main door to the manor.
[2] Newe House has been extensively restored by its current owners whose family have owned it since 1947.
