Barnwell Manor is a Grade II listed country estate near the village of Barnwell, south of Oundle, in Northamptonshire, England. The historic former home of the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester. The estate was granted to the Montagu family in 1540 by King Henry VIII, and they kept it until 1913 when it was sold by the 6th Duke of Buccleuch. In the interim period (1913–1938), Prince Philip's future Private Secretary Sir Brian McGrath (1925–2016) grew up at the manor until his parents bought their own house. The house may have been rented to a series of tenants. In 1938 Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, the third son of King George V, bought the house and estate with the bulk of his legacy from the late king. The Duke's wife Alice was the daughter of the 7th Duke of Buccleuch and had a fondness for the house that her grandfather had sold. It was announced in January 1995 that the Gloucesters would vacate the house, so that Princess Alice could move to Kensington Palace to be with her son, Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester. As of 2017, Windsor House Antiques occupies the estate.
