Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox historic site Chew Court is a Grade II* listed building next to St Andrew's church in Chew Magna, Somerset, England.[1][2]
It was originally a palace for Gisa the Bishop of Bath and Wells,[3] however little of the original building survives. After use by a succession of bishops it was sold to the Duke of Somerset.
The oldest portion is the gatehouse at the southern end of the east wing.[4]
The house was largely rebuilt in 1656, from which a little survives as the Chew Court of today including an Elizabethan doorway with Doric pilasters.[5] The room over the gatehouse is said to have been used as a court-room, with the turrets used for holding prisoners. The house now forms an "l" shape of two wings.[2]
In 2011 alterations were made to the driveway leading to the house and additional walls built around the gardens.[6][7]
About Шаблон:Convert south west of the building is a medieval well, which was later enclosed with a sandstone well house.[8]
