Cowdray House

Cowdray House
Cowdray House (or Cowdray Ruins as it is now known) stands in the grounds of the Cowdray Estate, Midhurst, West Sussex and is the remains of one of England's most important Tudor houses. In 1793 it caught fire which destroyed most of the property. Except for work to make it safe it remained that way until March 2007 when it opened to the public after works funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, English Heritage, the Cowdray Estate and the local community. (information from the Cowdray Heritage website).

Best viewed large, on black. Thank you.

It's well worth a look Eunice, even though you can only do so from the outside as far as I know. I understand what you mean about preferring the round house..............in Tudor times, this mansion would have been grand...........but also drafty and cold in the winter and hot and smelly in the summer!

A fine capture Keith. Just the kind of building that I too tend to photograph quite often. Looks like it was a great house in its day. Well done.

Cheers, Herb
