Boughton house is a house situated in Northamptonshire. I believe that it is not very typical of Tudor country houses due to most features resembling more 17th century style houses - for example Versailles - however I don’t think it is entirely different due to some physical details of the house‚ how it was obtained and how it became what it is today.
