Esher Place, Grade II listed mansion in Esher, United Kingdom
The French Renaissance style mansion stands in ten acres of grounds, featuring a late 15th-century gatehouse known as Waynflete's Tower.
Cardinal Wolsey remained under house arrest at Esher Place after his fall from power, before Henry VIII seized the estate for the Crown.
The property transformed into a training facility for the Electrical Trades Union in 1953, following its period as the Shaftesbury Home for children.
The mansion incorporates elements from previous structures, including materials from an 1805 building designed by Edward Lapidge on the elevated site.
Three captured Spanish admirals and their entourage were held at Esher Place for five years following the defeat of the Spanish Armada.
