Avington Park

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A historic Georgian mansion beside the River Itchen. Once the property of Winchester Cathedral, Avington was granted by Henry VIII to Edmund Clerke, who built what is now the orangery. Avington was later owned by George Brydges, Groom of the Bedchamber under Charles II. Brydges enlarged the house to create quarters for Charles and his mistress, Nell Gwynn. Later owners, including the Dukes of Buckingham, added greatly to the interior and sumptuous gardens.
