Itton Court

Itton Court, Itton, Devauden, Monmouthshire is a country house. The origin of the house was as an outstation for Chepstow Castle. In the 18th century, much of the medieval manor was pulled down and replaced. Further additions and alterations were made in the 19th and 20th centuries, including work by Guy Dawber. From the 18th until the mid-20th century, the court was the home of the Curre family, major landowners, who purchased the estate in 1749. It is a Grade II* listed building. HistoryThe original medieval manor was a fortified outstation for Chepstow Castle. The gate house, of a 14th century date is all that remains of the earlier building. In 1749, the court and estate were purchased by the Curre family. The Curres pulled down the remainder of the house, with the exception of a recently constructed wing in the William and Mary style, and built an almost entirely new house in the current Queen Anne style. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Sir Guy Dawber, an architect noted for his Arts and Crafts work in the Cotswolds was employed to undertake significant renovations and rebuilding. His work included a "very grand" billard room and a long gallery. The house remained the home of the Curres until the death of the last Lady Curre in 1956. It was then sold and was subsequently divided into apartments.
