Fetcham Park House, Grade II* listed mansion in Mole Valley, England
Fetcham Park House is a Grade II* listed red brick mansion with Portland stone details, standing two and a half storeys tall with a basement and a rectangular floor plan. It sits within a parkland setting in Mole Valley, Surrey, England.
The house was built between 1705 and 1710 for Henry Vincent, to designs by architect William Talman. In the following decades it passed to several notable owners, among them the Member of Parliament Arthur Moore.
The interior of the house features murals and ceiling paintings by Louis Laguerre, an artist who also worked at Blenheim Palace and Hampton Court Palace. These works are still visible in several rooms today and give the building much of its character.
The building now operates as office space and an event venue, so access is generally limited to those with a prior arrangement. Visiting is easiest when contact has been made in advance, as the premises are in active use.
A major restoration in 1979 uncovered original paintings that had been hidden for generations under later layers of decoration. This suggests that much of the original interior survived intact beneath subsequent changes.
