Classification Historic Building

DescriptionThe shell of Appuldurcombe, once the grandest house on the Isle of Wight and still an important example of English Baroque architecture: the 1701 south front has now been restored. It stands in 'Capability' Brown-designed grounds. An exhibition of photographs and prints depict the house and its history. You can also visit the Freemantle Gate (part of the 1770s neo-Classical additions to the estate) on the nearby public footpath, and the adjacent Falconry Centre (not managed by English Heritage). Managed by Mr and Mrs Owen.
