Dorton House, Country house in Seal, England
Dorton House stands as a Georgian mansion with nineteenth-century extensions, constructed of local materials and featuring a horseshoe-shaped layout.
The property, built between 1596 and 1626, belonged to Sir John Dormer and later passed through the Fletcher family until 1928.
The Royal London Society for the Blind operated educational facilities at Dorton House, providing specialized instruction for visually impaired students until 2013.

During World War II, the mansion functioned as a sector hospital before transforming into a country club with an extensive golf course.
