 The
delightful manor of Mapperton sits atop a long rise, dominating views
across a lovely Italianate garden. The house is largely a product of
the 1660s, though earlier Tudor elements have survived, and the north
front is in the classical style. The church of All Saints forms the
south wing of the house.
 The
upper garden is constructed in terraces edged by brick and concrete
and dotted throughout with topiary of yew and box. The gardens descend
a slope to fish ponds, an arboretum, and a shrub garden.
The house and grounds have featured in several motion
pictures, including Tom Jones, Emma, and Restoration.
