Back in March 2019, I discovered Bulstrode Park whilst researching the site's architect, Benjamin Ferrey. I found out that it was abandoned after doing a google to look into the place more. The weekend after, I set off to the town where it is situated... which involved doing a dog leg journey through London and to avoid the tube, having to cycle from Paddington to Marylebone. Not a pleasant experience!
Anyhow, I got to Bulstrode and immediately clocked the security guard's house nearby. I steered clear of that and found my way inside the house easily enough. It's a shame that the Christian company that used to own it removed much of the interior (Benjamin Ferrey was known for his Neo-Gothic interior design) but there were still some cool features left, including the large gatehouse like structure by James Wyatt from the original house. I didn't take too many photos because the majority of the place was modern interiors which was a shame. But saying that, I later found the clock tower - inside is a fantastic clock by Gillett and Bland of Croydon. It still works, as I wound it up for a laugh! Later on though I was caught by security but they were some of the nicest chaps I've ever spoken to. Really nice people.
Here are my photos! Some are edited a bit.
Aaannnddd soon after this I was caught!
Thanks for readin'!
