Newdigate House is a Grade II* listed [1] building on Castle Gate, Nottingham.. The house was built for Thomas Charlton the younger, of Chilwell. [2] He sold it in 1683 to Samuel Staples of Nottingham who leased it to Camille d'Hostun, duc de Tallard, who was effectively kept prisoner in it from 1705 to 1711 after defeat in the Battle of Blenheim in 1704.
He was engaged as an assistant architect with Arthur Richard Calvert on the Constitutional Club, the Old Moot Hall, the Auction Mart and other buildings in Nottingham. [ 2 ] Around 1913, he formed a partnership with Bernard Jessop, and Charles Henry Calvert (son of Arthur Richard Calvert) as Calvert, Jessop and Gleave .
The house was built for Cornelius Launder. The date of construction was recorded on a date-stone inscribed 'C1767L' but this is no longer extant. [2] Cornelius Launder, Sheriff of Nottingham in 1775, was a notable landlord and had a reputation as a miser, but spared no expense on his own house and lived here until his death in 1806.

In 1890 a large part of the estate was sold by auction; the house and adjoining parkland was bought by Sir John Robinson, a Nottingham businessman, who felled many of the mature trees for sale. He was appointed High Sheriff of Nottinghamshire in 1901.
The house was put up for sale again in 1919 [8] and was sold to Jesse Boot, 1st Baron Trent who donated the estate to the University. In 1930 the house became the home of the principal of Nottingham University College [9] and later the Vice-Chancellor of the University. This persisted until the Vice-Chancellor vacated the property in the 1990s.
