The History
Maryfield House was originally built as a school in 1847. This was to commemorate the birth of the first child to Mr and Mrs Pole Carew, owners of the neighbouring Antony House. The architect William White, who also designed the church next door, fashioned Maryfield into a Gothic style vicarage. Maryfield was acquired by the current owners and has undergone an extensive refurbishment programme.
