Sharpham, Ashprington
Sharpham is an historic estate in the parish of Ashprington, Devon. The Georgian mansion house, known as Sharpham House, overlooks the River Dart and is a Grade I listed building.〔(Listed building text )〕 The house was commenced in about 1770 by the Royal Navy captain Philemon Pownoll (d. 1780) to the designs of the architect Sir Robert Taylor (1714–1788).
