The Mythe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mythe is a house built on the top of a hill overlooking the town of Tewkesbury, England. There has been a house on the site for nearly a thousand years. The Mythe is the name of the house but it also the name of the surrounding area, about 4 square miles. The main road going through it is the A38 or the "Mythe Road".
The house now standing on the plot is an early Georgian house that was built in 1753. This house was later bought by the Marquis de Lis. The Marquis' emblem of the Fleur de Lis was later incorporated into the crest of the French royal family. When he bought it he had a Gothic facade put on the front and the sides of the building. He later added a servants' quarters on the back.
