Summary
| Description |
English: Stratfield Saye House The eastern aspect of the house, the nation's gift to the first Duke of Wellington following victory at Waterloo, as seen across lawns that rise gradually from the River Loddon. Most of the house dates from about 1640. The first Duke had the intention of replacing it with a much grander residence elsewhere on the estate. However, funds did not allow for this and instead he had the conservatory and a couple of wings added. These give the house an asymmetrical appearance. |
