Summary: | This report considers the history and archaeology of Shute Barton (Old Shute House) in East Devon. From the mid fifteenth century to its partial demolition in the 1 780s, Shute was one of the major houses of the West Country. Built by the Bonville family in the late medieval period and acquired by William Pole in 1561, it remained in the hands of Pole's descendants until the twentieth century. Since 1959 it has been the property of the National Trust. |
