Newark Park is a Grade I listed[1] country house of Tudor origins located near the village of Ozleworth, Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire.

Newark Park was originally a four-storey (three storeys over a basement) Tudor hunting lodge built between 1544 and 1556[2] for Sir Nicholas Poyntz (d.1557), whose main seat was at Acton Court near Bristol, some fifteen miles to the south, an easy day's ride.

Poyntz was a Groom of the Privy Chamber to Henry VIII[3] and had recently remodeled Acton Park in anticipation of a royal visit.

[5] Modest sleeping quarters were provided on the third floor, and the roof was flat so that it could be used as a pleasurable lookout over the surrounding countryside,[2] in which it enjoys a commanding position.

Mrs Annie Poole King family, widow of a Bristol shipping merchant took the leasehold in 1898, moving from the larger Standish House at Stonehouse, Gloucestershire.

The King family added servants' quarters on the north side, installed a hot-air heating system and ran hot water to the second floor.
