More about this scene
Traditionally the gathering place for the Royal family in the New Year, it was originally bought by Queen Victoria as a twenty-first birthday gift for Edward when he was Prince of Wales. Her intention was that he should spend his off-duty time 'away from town.... to enjoy the benefits of a healthy, country life'.

Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I was perhaps the last person born at the Rectory - 1st July 1955. Such happy memories of a childhood growing up in such a wonderful place. Lots of children my own age, ponies, endless adventures within a protected and safe estate. Leaving for Wiltshire at 16 was the first hard thing I had done!
