Youngsbury House is a Grade II listed house near Wadesmill, Hertfordshire, England.[1] The stable block is Grade II* listed.[2]

The house was built in about 1745 by David Poole,[3] with 97 acres of grounds, and gardens landscaped by Capability Brown.[4]

People connected with it

David Barclay, the Quaker banker and abolitionist, bought the manor in 1769, and enlarged the house. A plan by Capability Brown the following year introduced a serpentine lake.[5] Barclay sold it in 1793, after the death of his second wife, to William Cunliffe Shawe, and it passed in 1796 to Daniel Giles.[6]

In 2012, it was for sale, "offers in excess of £3,900,000".[7] As of 2015, it is owned by Jeremy Langmead,[4] the former editor of Wallpaper* magazine and Esquire magazin, who used to be married to writer India Knight.[8].
