Holdenby House

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.02 sec.

Holdenby House

Ruined mansion 10 km/6 mi northwest of Northampton, England. It was originally built as a palace for Christopher Hatton by the architect John Thorpe (1565–1655) in 1583, and sold by Hatton's successor to James I who used it as a royal residence. Holdenby was demolished during the Commonwealth, and only two arches remain.

Charles I also used Holdenby House, and after his defeat 1645 at nearby Naseby in 1645 was imprisoned there, from 30 January to early June 1647.
