Robert Harbin rebuilt the house, completed in 1612. The house had remained in the family until 2007 when the last member of the family Sophia Wyndham died aged 97. The contents of the house were also sold in 2007, including the library which had remained untouched for hundreds of years. Many of the volumes of classics, theology and history belonged to the Rev. John Phelipps (second son of Edward Phelipps of Montacute). Vicar of Yeovil. 1756-66 and bear his gilt bookstamp, as is the case with this book..
