Ockham Park, English country house in Ockham, United Kingdom.

The main structure of Ockham Park features red brick walls, seven bays on each side, and stands as a square two-story block with a hipped tiled roof.

Built in 1638 for the Weston family, the house underwent modifications between 1727 and 1729 under architect Nicholas Hawksmoor for Lord King, then Lord Chancellor.

Ada Lovelace resided at Ockham Park with her husband William, who received the title Earl of Lovelace during their time at the estate.

The stable block near the main house has been converted into residential flats while maintaining its Grade II* listed building status.

A fire in 1948 damaged much of the interior, leaving only the orangery, stable block, kitchen wing, and an Italianate tower from the original structure.
