Wykehurst Place

Wykehurst Place (or Park) is a Gothic Revival mansion in Bolney, West Sussex, England, resembling more the châteaux of the Loire[1] than an English manor house.

It was designed in 1871 by architect Edward Middleton Barry for the banker of German extraction, Henry Huth, MP (1815–1878), a bibliophile and collector of paintings.

The entrance to the property leads down a pebble drive to a grassed patio surrounding the house, descending from a 280-foot terrace to a garden and lawn at the back.

The mansion's exterior— "decaying at the time of writing" Nicholas Pevsner observed in 1965[6]— and grounds have appeared in a number of films dating back to the late 1960s, including Oh!

What a Lovely War, All the Colors of the Dark, Demons of the Mind, The Legend of Hell House, The Eagle Has Landed, and Holocaust 2000, among others.
