| The gate posts & fencing. |
The KSD Group took over the lease of Patcham Place in 2012 and deserve every credit for the thoroughness with which they have restored and maintained Patcham Place since.
Following recurrent thefts of lead prior to 2014 estate-style mild steel fencing and handsome gate posts were installed. Remnants of original wrought-iron fencing are still to be found at the top of Coney Hill.
Patcham Place was built in the 16th.C but the facade was later modified with the black mathematical tiles that can be seen today. It is said to be haunted by one of its owners Anthony Stapley who lived there c1620-1655. He was a leading Puritan and Parliamentarian in the area and one of the 59 MPs who signed Charles I's death warrant.
