3 unusual facts about Fetcham Park House


Fetcham Park House

The house remained empty for two years until it was acquired by the Reverend James Wilkie, Rector of the Parish of Badingham in Suffolk.

But Moore spent so extravagantly that after his death in 1730 there were insufficient funds to maintain the estate and it was sold in 1737 to Thomas Revell, Agent Victualler at Gibraltar.

By 1875 John Hankey inherited the property and commissioned a major refurbishment by the respected architect Edward I'Anson.
