In 2018 the owner Laurence Daw was given a community order, together with a fine of £2,250 and costs of £65,000, for undertaking unlicensed redevelopment at the house which Cheshire East Council described as "reckless vandalism".[2] Damage included demolishing a 19th-century servants' wing, a cheese room and an entrance for tradespeople, as well as replacing sash windows and other interior damage. The house subsequently required one of its walls to be stabilised.[3][4]
