Originally built in 1976 it was soon to change hands when in 1898 it was sold to the wealthy scottish industrialist Sir Charles Tennant, who used it as an out of London house for entertaining.
The brewing family Charrington were custodians from 1911 until 1946 until it was sold to the Ministry of Supply in 1948.
After that it became home to Ministry of Defence from 1948 until 1996
Acompany then brought it with the intention of turning the house into a hotel and the grounds into a business park but hey proved a tad too ambitious and the company went into receivership and has been empty ever since

Nice to see this place again, lovely shots there too.... cheers for posting them up :)
 
This is on my list now....local, empty AND beautiful....Nice pics and thanks for sharing.
 
Great pictures! I stumbled across this place not so long ago after spotting a sorry looking building through the bushes. Although I was unprepared I had to take a look and before long I found the main building and it took me a minute to realise where I was! Need to go back, I'd like to have a nose inside.
 
Some nice pics right there! This place looks really nice mate.
