Stoke Park Pavilions, 17th century Palladian pavilions in Northamptonshire, England.

The two remaining pavilions and curved colonnade stand in a 400-acre park, representing early English Palladian architecture from the 1620s.

Henry VIII acquired the deer park in 1541, using it for hunting expeditions with Anne Boleyn before granting it to Sir Francis Crane in 1629.

The pavilions served specific purposes in their design, with one functioning as a chapel and the other as a library within the original estate.

Public access to the pavilions requires advance arrangements, with selected afternoons in August offering guided tours for an admission fee.

Isaac Newton spent time at the estate in 1672, writing multiple letters during his stay at what was then England's first Palladian country house.
