Brightling Park, Grade II* listed building in Brightling, England

The main house at Brightling Park features two stories with a nine-window north front and stands within 200 hectares of parkland.

The estate originated as 'Sheperdes' between 1540 and 1561, built by Michael Martin before changing ownership through several families including the Fullers.

The estate includes architectural elements from different periods, including an 1803 summerhouse with interlocking columns and a semicircular design.

Visitors can explore the grounds to view multiple Grade II listed structures, including stables, a coach house, and an avenue bordered by ha-has.

The property contains an observatory designed by Sir Robert Smirke in 1818, featuring a T-shaped structure with specific slots for telescope placement.
