Summary

[edit]
Description
English: 23 Church Street, Steyning acquired its name during an 18th century legal stand-off between landlord, Sir Harry Gough, and a sitting tenant who refused to pay rent in order to gain squatters’ rights. Gough, who was MP for Bramber between 1774-96, knew the sitting tenant would qualify as one of the few voters of the rotten borough of Bramber, stood his ground and eventually won. The date stone above the door reads: “This is Sir Harry Gough’s House 1771.” The building itself dates from the 17th century.
