An early Eighteen Century Great House on the Prospect Estate. It is of two storeys and possesses some Palladian features. The ground floor is fortified with twenty-eight loopholes that were designed to protect it against marauding pirates and buccaneers. A mahogany tree in front of the house commemorates the three week stay of Sir Winston Churchill and his family in 1952.
