Thenford House, Grade I listed Georgian mansion in Thenford, England
The double-pile stone building features two storeys with attics, basements, side pavilions connected by screening walls, and a prominent cupola on top.
Michael Wodhull commissioned the construction of Thenford House between 1761 and 1765, potentially acting as his own architect alongside a local draughtsman.
The residence became the property of Michael and Anne Heseltine in 1976, who established an extensive arboretum collection on the 400-acre estate grounds.
The estate includes several Grade II listed structures, including a water tank from 1765, a 19th-century pump, and two farmhouses within its boundaries.
The architectural style combines Palladian elements with Carolean influences, which Nikolaus Pevsner noted as unusually conservative for its construction period.
