Clouds House is a Grade II listed building located near the village of East Knoyle in rural Wiltshire. Designed in the 19th century by Philip Webb for Percy and Madeline Wyndham, Clouds was Webb’s grandest design following on from Red House in Bexleyheath for the artist and close friend William Morris. Currently owned by the Charitable organization Action on addiction Clouds, this magnificent example of British architecture is now home to a well established treatment centre for drug and alcohol dependence.
