Appuldurcombe House, English Baroque country house in Godshill, England.
The structure features symmetrical wings, a central pediment, and tall windows arranged across its pale stone facade measuring over 100 feet wide.
Construction of Appuldurcombe House began in 1701 under architect John James, serving as the residence of the Worsley family until the 19th century.
The building represents a prime example of English Baroque architecture through its proportions, decorative elements, and spatial arrangement of rooms.
Visitors can access the house and its gardens throughout the year, with guided tours available that explain the architectural features and restoration work.
The estate suffered significant damage during World War II when a German bomber released a landmine that destroyed parts of the building.
