Savay Farm is a Grade I listed twelfth century farmhouse in Denham, Buckinghamshire, England.[1]
The house has a timber frame and red brick nogging.
It was granted Grade I status in September 1955, protecting it from unauthorised alteration or demolition.
Past owners of the house have included the Durdent Family (1130-1512) after whom the house was once named and Lt-Gen. Gerald Goodlake VC, a veteran of the Crimean War and recipient of the Victoria Cross. Goodlake's medals are currently held in the Regimental Headquarters of the Grenadier Guards in the Wellington Barracks, Westminster.
Savay Farm was later lived in by Sir Oswald Mosley, a British politician and the founder of the British Union of Fascists. He lived at Savehay Farm (name used by the Mosleys) with his wife, Lady Cynthia Mosley (nee Curzon). On the 23rd May 1940, officers of Special Branch raided Savay Farm in conjunction with Mosley's internment and found a collection of firearms and ammunition.[2]
, the house is in private ownership. It is within 300m (1,000feet) of the proposed path of the High Speed 2 railway, which would pass the house on the 30m (100feet) high Colne Valley Viaduct.[3]
