Guy's Cliffe House

Guy's Cliffe house was sold in 1947 with the intention of converting it into a hotel, but these plans came to nothing and the house fell into disrepair. In 1955 the house was purchased by Aldwyn Porter and the chapel leased to the freemasons, establishing a connection with the masons that remains today. The roof had fallen in by 1966. In 1992 during the filming of The adventures of Sherlock Holmes(The last Vampyre) a fire scene got out of control and seriously damaged the building, leading to an insurance claim. English Heritage has given the building grade 11 listed status.
