Wootton House is a large property in Wootton, Bedfordshire built in the late 17th century.[1]

It kept its estate until the 1950s when all of its land was sold off in lots and it ended up losing its 5 or so farms and cottages. It is now surrounded by 8 acres of orchard, fields and lawns.

Since then, the house has been converted into offices and recently been converted back to a family homes. It has now almost got back to its former glory, and is inhabited by the Palmer family.
