Manor of Cobham, Kent, English country house in Cobham, England
The Tudor wings and classical center block of Cobham Hall form a substantial residence with symmetrical architecture and ornate interior decorations spanning multiple periods.
William Brooke, 10th Baron Cobham, initiated the construction of this mansion between 1584 and 1591, with later modifications by Charles Stewart in the 1670s.
The Gilt Hall, created by George Shakespear from 1770 to 1781, represents the peak of Georgian craftsmanship with detailed woodwork and ornamental features.
The property functions as a private boarding school for girls since 1962, offering guided visits to the public on specific dates throughout the year.
During World War I, the mansion served as a recovery hospital for Australian soldiers under the supervision of Matron Mary Anne Pocock.
