Brewhouse and Laundry, The Vyne, Sherborne St John, Hampshire
The Vyne is a Grade I listed 16th-century country house in the parish of Sherborne St John, near Basingstoke, Hampshire. The house was first built circa 1500–10 in the Tudor style by William Sandys, 1st Baron Sandys, Lord Chamberlain to King Henry VIII. In the 17th century it was transformed to resemble a classical mansion. Today, although much reduced in size, the house retains its Tudor chapel, with contemporary stained glass. The classical portico on the north front was added in 1654 to the design of John Webb, a pupil of Inigo Jones, and is notable as the first portico in English domestic architecture.
The former brewhouse and laundry form the north side of the courtyard adjacent to the house. These have some 16th Century timbers, and were either adapted from an exiting Tudor building, or built using salvaged materials.
