Wykehurst Place, Gothic Revival mansion in Bolney, England.
The building features turrets, arches, and conical roofs styled after Loire chateaux, with a 280-foot terrace descending to gardens at the back.
Edward Middleton Barry designed this Grade II* listed mansion in 1871, completing construction in 1874 at a cost of £35,000 for banker Henry Huth.
The mansion received international attention through its appearances in numerous films since the 1960s, including 'Oh! What a Lovely War'.
Large black wrought iron entrance gates with griffin decorations mark the east lodge entrance, connecting to the main London-Brighton road.
Iranian writer Ebrahim Golestan maintained ownership of the property from 1984 until 2023, adding a multicultural dimension to its ownership history.
