Sulgrave Manor, Sulgrave, Northamptonshire, England is a mid-16th century Tudor hall house built by Lawrence Washington, the great-great-great-great grandfather of George Washington, first President of the United States. The manor passed out of the hands of the Washington family in the 17th century and by the 19th had descended to the status of a farmhouse. In 1911, Theodore Roosevelt, the former president, suggested a memorial to commemorate 100 years of peace between England and the United States, and the manor was bought for this purpose in 1914. Between 1920-1930 the manor was restored, and a garden created, by Reginald Blomfield. Sulgrave Manor is now administed by a trust and is a Grade I listed building.
