Historical NoteChesworth House is situated within the Lordship of Horsham
and became the ‘manor’ house for Horsham, a settlement that
developed successfully enough to be granted the right to be a
borough in the early 1200’s.
Chesworth was given by William the Conqueror to William de
Braose, who landed with him. When the last William de Braose
died in 1329, with no heirs, Chesworth House passed onto Thomas
(his nephew), whereupon his younger son became the owner of
Chesworth at the age of 15. The house passed out of the family tree
until it reappeared to descendants of Aliva, the daughter of William
de Braose who married John de Mowbray.
Sir Robert Howard married the heiress Margaret de Mowbray
around 1476; their son John inherited the title of Duke of Norfolk.
King Henry VIII’s fifth wife, Catherine Howard spent her childhood at Chesworth. The house was then inherited by Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk, who was a leading character in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I; he was arrested there and executed for high treason in 1572 after which the Crown took ownership of the estate. Chesworth House was then occupied by various tenants; in 1660-61 by Queen Henrietta Maria and by Queen Catherine of Braganza in 1674, who lived there until 1699.
Charles Eversfield eventually became the lessee of the manor and his descendants purchased Chesworth. Since then, Chesworth House has been inherited and sold many times with a recent owner being a distinguished theatrical agent whose clients included Sir John Gielgud, Sir Laurence Olivier and Ingrid Bergman, all of whom visited and stayed at the house regularly.
