and the Shirleys. The fortified manor house to which the existing
gatehouse belonged was probably built by Thomas Lovett who exchanged
the manors of Rushton and Great Oakley for those of Falcutt
and Astwell in 1471. The daughter of the last Thomas Lovett
of Astwell married Francis Shirley and their son George Shirley
demolished most of the medieval manor house and built a new
house beside the gatehouse, completed in 1606. The property
was sold to Earl Temple of Stowe in 1763 when Astwell became
a tenant farm and a large part of the house was demolished.
In 1958 the building was restored for Mrs Joan Wake.
