Theobalds House, Historical palace ruins in Cedars Park, England

The remaining structures of Theobalds Palace include red brick walls and a stone arch from the early 17th century within Cedars Park boundaries.

William Cecil constructed Theobalds House between 1564 and 1585, which later became a royal residence when King James I acquired it in 1607.

The formal gardens drew inspiration from French design, incorporating elements similar to those found at the Château de Fontainebleau.

The ruins are accessible through Cedars Park, which Admiral Sir Hedworth Lambton donated to Cheshunt residents in 1921.

A section of the original palace wall extends 16 meters in length and features protective iron railings to preserve its historical structure.
