The Old House, Milverton

The Old House in Milverton in Somerset, England is a Grade II* listed building dating from the late 14th and early 15th century,[1] although there may also be remains of an earlier building on the site.

[2] The house is built of red sandstone with Hamstone dressings.

It was built as a residence for the archdeacon of Taunton and was the home of Thomas Cranmer,[3][4] in the 1530s while he held the post.

[5] It was only sold by the church in the mid 20th century.

[1] While the house was being renovated in the early 21st century, a Tudor wall painting of Henry VIII was discovered underneath the plaster as it was being removed.
