The rolling landscape of the Chilterns makes it difficult to get a clear view of the House from afar, and this shot was taken from the fields near Rotherfield Greys. The view includes Greys Court House itself, the Dower House and the Great Tower. The area in this picture would have originally been a collection of buildings enclosed by towers and defensive walls, which date from the 14th century and are now incomplete. Greys Court House as seen today is essentially 16th century. At that time it had connections to the Knollys family, later to the Stapletons, and most recently to the Brunners, before coming into the ownership of the National Trust.
