Chettle House (3) Commissioned by George Chafin MP, and designed by Thomas Archer, Chettle remained with the Chafin family until the death of the last of the line in 1818. It then passed into the hands of the Castleman family in 1846, who undertook an extensive programme of renovation and rebuilding. With the death of Edward Castleman in 1946, the house was inherited by his niece Esther Bourke, the grandmother of the present owners Peter and Fiona Bourke.
