Ham Court along with the barns and outbuildings plus 22 acres was put up for sale by Jesus College Oxford in 2010 and was bought by Emma Bridgewater. This is the sales brochure and I'm sorry to say the scanned versions given to me clearly had something wrong with the colour but the text is perfect. The diagrams of the first and second floor are very interesting. See also entry 2017.529

BA5EDB This is a 14th century hooded fireplace in Ham Court in the room called the solar. Seen
here is 1946. It is a small room in the large farmhouse and would soon have been made warm with
the fire, ideal for warming up after a day's hunting in the cold.
BA676F An old drawing of Ham Court, sometime referred to as Bampton Castle. In the 1870s the
turret walling was restored and an addition put on the south side of the building. The old building
seen in this picture was once the west gate house to the castle. The archway has been filled in on
both sides to make a fully enclosed farmhouse.
BA80E7 This is the east side of what was the western gatehouse of Bampton Castle. The archway
was originally open on both sides of the gatehouse to allow carriages to come and go.
BA9E81 Ham Court farmhouse, originally the western gatehouse of Bampton Castle.
BA05A2 This boss is in the middle of one of the two rooms on the first floor of Ham Court which are
directly above what was once the passageway through the gatehouse in the west wall of the castle.
BAC569 This is the western aspect of the west gatehouse of Bampton Castle, which is now Ham
Court Farm.
