51°06′21″N 1°45′30″W / 51.1059°N 1.7584°W Hurdcott House is a 19th-century country house in Winterbourne Earls, Wiltshire, England, in the Bourne valley about 3 miles (5 km) north-east of Salisbury.[1] It became a Grade II listed building on 29 May 1987.[2]
The two-storey house with three bays dates to the early-mid 19th century, and features Flemish brickwork with a slate roof, and a Tuscan doorcase. At the base of the rear wings of the house are four-flue brick stacks.[2]
There is another Hurdcott House in the west of Barford St Martin parish,[3] on the banks of the River Nadder about 4 miles (6 km) west of Wilton (the house and the hamlet of Hurdcott were transferred to Barford from Baverstock parish in 1884).[4] This house, which is not a listed building, was rebuilt in the 1970s.[5]
The entomologist John Henry Leech had his home at Hurdcott House, and died there in 1900.[6] It is not clear which Hurdcott House this was.
