Ferne House, English country house in Donhead St Andrew, Great Britain

Ferne House stands as a grand residence designed by architect Quinlan Terry in 2001, following the Palladian architectural principles across the Wiltshire countryside.

The site's history extends to 1225 when Philip de Ferne established the first manor house, followed by two subsequent buildings, including the current structure.

The estate maintains traditional English architectural elements through its north front design, which mirrors the style of Came House in Dorset.

The property, owned by Viscount Rothermere, features additional wings constructed in 2013 that serve as a dining room and library for various functions.

Archaeological excavations conducted in 1988 revealed artifacts from multiple prehistoric periods, including Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age settlements in the area.
