In the mid-19th century an entrance with a porch, vestibule and cloakrooms, and a cast-iron domed conservatory, were added on the west side of the house. The conservatory is attributed to the architect Charles Fowler. A library was also established at that time and other minor changes were made. There have otherwise been few alterations.<ref name=bho/><ref>[http://www.camehouse.co.uk/house-and-estate/ "The House and Estate"] Came House.
