Hughenden Manor, Victorian country house in Hughenden, England
Hughenden Manor is a red-brick country house in Wiltshire featuring Gothic details like stepped battlements and decorative pinnacles on its exterior. The estate includes formal gardens and now operates as a museum run by the National Trust.
Benjamin Disraeli purchased the estate in 1848 and made it his residence, transforming it from Georgian to Victorian style. After his death in 1881, the house changed hands several times before the National Trust eventually preserved it.
The house displays personal belongings from Disraeli's era, including his extensive library and family portraits throughout the rooms. Visitors can see how a Victorian household was furnished and arranged.
The manor is accessible via paved paths, with parking available near the entrance. A gift shop and picnic areas are on site, and visitors should wear comfortable shoes to explore the rooms and gardens.
During World War II, the estate served as a secret intelligence station where staff analyzed aerial photographs. This work was vital to planning RAF bombing operations during the conflict.
