Abstract:		 Moreton is a large country house of complex developmental plan, with surviving features from three main phases of build, the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries and later refurbishment in the form of the creation of a first floor ballroom and the insertion of a new stair. Contained within the building are parts of the 16th century Daddon House, evidence for a 18th century rebuild with a grand stair and further extensions in the early and mid-nineteenth century. In the early 20th century the stair was relocated and a ballroom created on the first floor. Secondary sources suggest that the building was completed in 1821 however, the evidence from cartographic sources and the extant architectural details suggest a completion date circa 1850. The house is associated with landscaped grounds which also contain important historic features such as ponds, sunken gardens, walled gardens and carriage drives that contribute significantly to the setting of the building.
