Wormsley Park, English country house in Stokenchurch, England.

Wormsley Park spans 2,700 acres in the Chiltern Hills, featuring a cricket ground, walled garden, lake, and multiple architectural structures across its grounds.

The estate, established by the Scrope family in the 16th century, passed to Thomas Fane in 1720 before Sir Paul Getty acquired it in 1985.

The Sir Paul Getty Library contains valuable manuscripts, including a First Folio of Shakespeare's plays and Anne Boleyn's Psalter, attracting scholars worldwide.

The estate opens for specific events, including cricket matches, opera performances in June and July, and private functions throughout the year.

The estate served as a release site for red kites, contributing to the successful reintroduction of these birds to the Chiltern Hills region.
