Charlton House

Charlton House is a stunning Jacobean mansion located in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, London, built between 1607 and 1612. Renowned for its exquisite architecture, it is the only complete Jacobean mansion remaining in Greater London. Originally constructed for Sir Adam Newton, a tutor to Prince Henry, the house features remarkable interior elements such as oak staircases and ornamental plasterwork. The estate is steeped in royal history, with connections to notable figures like King James I and Prince Henry. Today, Charlton House serves as a community center and events venue, offering visitors a glimpse into its rich past and beautiful gardens, including a historic mulberry tree planted under the orders of James I.
