History
In 1479 the widow of Sir John Lenham passed Tubney Manor to William de Waynflete, the Bishop of Winchester, for his foundation of Magdalen College. The earliest part of Tubney House, “The Gollds”, built in 1537, forms the eastern section of the present building, with cellars below, and is thought to have originally been a hunting lodge to Tubney Manor. Architectural details still exist and indicate that the original entrance would have been to the east wall.

In 1811 major works were carried out by the then tenant, a Mr Lockhard, to extensively add to The Gollds and create a country house. Gothic crenulations and pointed Gothic windows were included. Also the present Gothic hall and staircase, along with the library (now the lecture hall) and the first floor great parlour (now the common room). Also at this time, the kitchen was added as well as the kitchen yard and servants' staircases, and possibly the walled kitchen garden. Improvements and additions continued throughout the 19th century.

In October 2004, conversion of the house was complete, for the next phase in the house's history, when it was allocated as the headquarters of a new international conservation centre, which it has remained until the present day. Throughout the renovation of The Tubney House Estate, great care has been taken to use original materials where possible, including doors, stone and wooden floorboards and original Gothic carvings have been carefully repainted and restored.

Architectural features still intact include the Gothic hallway, with its stunning Gothic staircase, ceiling roundels and elaborately carved cornicing. Gothic panelled doors and windows, with wooden
