Moggerhanger House, Historic country house in Moggerhanger, England.

The Georgian mansion spans across 33 acres of parkland and woodland, featuring symmetrical architecture with Portland stone columns and detailed interior decorations.

Bank of England director Godfrey Thornton commissioned architect John Soane to transform the original small house through extensive renovations between 1790 and 1812.

The residence operates as a house museum, displaying period furnishings and architectural elements that demonstrate the evolution of English country house design.

Visitors can access the grounds daily from 8 AM to 4 PM and join guided tours of the house on selected Wednesdays and Sundays during summer months.

The property contains one of only four surviving buildings designed by John Soane, featuring his experimental use of Parker's Roman Cement on the exterior walls.
