Worplesdon Lodge – English School 19th Century

1860

About the Item

This charming landscape features the structure now known as the Worplesdon Place Hotel, near Guildford, Surrey. The house is of notable historical significance, and it is registered to have been built in about 1845 by Sir William Bovill. Initially called Worplesdone Lodge, the grand manse served as a private residence for the next 100 years, and was owned by several notable people. In the 1950s it became a hotel and still operates in this manner today. Here we see the house soon after its completion, with St. Mary the Virgin Church seen on the hill in the distance. Pencil on cream-colored oak tag, 10 1/4 x 5 3/8 inches (260 x 136 mm). Scattered light gray discoloration throughout, rubbing with some small areas of associated loss in the lower left image area, at the sheet edge. Inscriptions in pencil on the verso, including an illegible signature.
