Kingswood House, Victorian mansion in West Dulwich, United Kingdom.

The stone-faced baronial castle features detailed wood paneling throughout its rooms and includes a grand hall with traditional architectural elements.

William Vizard, a solicitor who assisted Queen Caroline in her divorce from George IV, received a 63-year lease for Kingswood Lodge in 1811.

The building functions as Kingswood Arts, providing space for performances, exhibitions, and community gatherings in the London Borough of Southwark.

The mansion contains multiple rooms for events, with handrails on stairs and seating areas, though visitors should note the absence of elevators.

Local residents nicknamed the property Bovril Castle after John Lawson Johnston, the inventor of Bovril, added battlements during its 1891 renovation.

Location: London Borough of Southwark
