Calcot Park, English country house in Tilehurst, England
Calcot Park stands on expansive grounds featuring classical architectural elements, including detailed stonework and symmetrical window arrangements typical of traditional English estates.
The current house was constructed in 1759 by John Blagrave after a dispute with previous owner Benjamin Child resulted in damage to the original structure.
The estate connects to local folklore through Frances Kendrick, known as the Berkshire Lady, who challenged her future husband Benjamin Child to a duel before marriage.
The property functions as both residential apartments, housed in the main building since 1960, and a golf club with facilities designed by architect Harry Colt.
The estate features a substantial lake that intersects the seventh hole of the golf course, integrating natural water elements into the sporting landscape.
