Stowe, Kilkhampton
Stowe House in the parish of Kilkhampton in Cornwall was a mansion built in 1679 by John Grenville, 1st Earl of Bath (1628-1701) and demolished in 1739. The Grenville family were for many centuries lords of the manor of Kilkhampton, which they held from the feudal barony of Gloucester, as they did their other principal seat of nearby Bideford in Devon. It is possible that the family's original residence at Kilkhampton was Kilkhampton Castle, of which only the groundworks survive, unusual in that it had a motte with two baileys.〔http://www.historic-cornwall.org.uk/a2m/medieval/castle/kilkhampton/kilkhampton.htm〕
==History==
The Grenville family's earliest seat was in their manor of Bideford in Devon, but from the 14th century they were also seated at Stowe. The last house on the site was built in about 1675 〔Date of building: 1675 per Beckett, 1680-85 per Pevsner, 2004, p.301〕 by John Granville, 1st Earl of Bath (1628-1701), created in 1660 in recompense for his great assistance in the Restoration of King Charles II, Baron Granville, Viscount Granville and Earl of Bath.
