A HISTORIC Bewdley house where Winston Churchill is thought to have met Charles de Gaulle in the Second World War is on the market.
Winterdyne House has been put on the market with a price guide of £3.75million.
The Grade II listed Georgian country house was built in the late 18th century.
However, it is most famous for its role during the Second World War.
After the Nazi’s took over France in 1940, Winterdyne was used as a base to allow generals to liaise with Free French officers who were posted at Ribbesford.
The leader of Free France, officers who had refused their country’s surrender and armistice in 1940, was General Charles de Gaulle, and he was based at Winterdyne House for some time.
It is rumoured that General Charles de Gaulle met with Winston Churchill during the Second World War, when the Prime Minister was visiting his son.
The estate is around 30 acres large and has seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, an indoor pool and four reception rooms.
It also contains a converted Coach House, with two self-contained, two-bedroom homes.
The estate is being marketed by Chartwell Noble Estate Agents.
The property was later lived in by politician and benefactor Giles Shaw and has also been used as a care home.
