Ammerdown House, Grade I listed country house in Kilmersdon, England
The symmetrical stone mansion includes stables, formal gardens, gothic fountains, and statues set within landscaped parkland covering multiple acres.
James Wyatt designed this residence in 1788 for Thomas Samuel Jolliffe, with subsequent enlargements made in 1855 and 1877 under William Jolliffe's ownership.
The mansion reflects Georgian architectural principles through its proportions, window arrangements, and integration of classical design elements across the facade.
The property functions as a charitable organization, providing accommodations and meeting spaces for groups while maintaining its residential character.
A 150-foot column resembling Eddystone Lighthouse stands in Ammerdown Park, constructed in 1853 by the builder's sons as a navigation landmark.
