Set like a lakeside temple in a landscaped park, Northington Grange is the foremost example of the Greek Revival style in England. Created between 1804 and 1809 when William Wilkins encased an earlier house in Classical facades, most strikingly the temple front supported on eight gigantic columns. It provides a stunning backdrop for the opera evenings which take place here in the Summer; call 01962 737360 for details.

Filming at this site includes the 1999 film, Onegin, with Ralph Fiennes.
