By 1602 the house had become the home of the Howland family who had recently purchased the manor of Tooting Bec and Streatham. By the early part of the 18th century it had become the property of the Dukes of Bedford and in 1805 was sold to Lord Deerhurst. Subsequently the house was demolished and replaced by Coventry Hall, which was demolished during the 1980s.
