Winner of the 2023 Georgian Group Architectural Award for the Restoration of a Georgian Garden of Landscape, Bromesberrow Place was built in 1768 but remodelled by George Basevi in 1810 for the economist David Ricardo in the severe Greek revival style. Basevi, Disraeli’s first cousin and a pupil of Sir John Soane, was only 25 at the time. He was later known his work on Belgrave Square, Pelham Crescent, London and the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. 

The park at Bromesberrow was extended by Hal Moggridge in 1993 to cover 200 acres with some 80,000 trees planted in the shelter belts. Thirty years on and the structure of the restored parkland can be appreciated once again.  

Visitors will have an introductory talk “The English Country house – Grandeur and Decline” followed by a tour of the ground floor, main staircase and one bedroom. This is followed by the garden tour which includes the vineyard in the walled garden and the 19th-century camelia house. The garden covers five acres.
