Lodge Park & Sherborne Estate Description
Situated on the picturesque Sherborne Estate in the Cotswolds, Lodge Park was created in 1634 by John ‘Crump’ Dutton. Inspired by his passion for gambling and banqueting it is a unique survival of a grandstand, deer course and park. In the 19th century the interior was altered beyond recognition, and it became a house. Until 1982 it was home to Charles Dutton, 7th Lord Sherborne, and then to his housekeeper, both of whom made a great contribution to Lodge Park’s fascinating social history.
Since 1994, the grandstand has been returned to its original form. This is the first project that the National Trust has undertaken which relies totally on archaeological evidence. The deer park, for which Charles Bridgeman drew a plan in 1725, is also of great importance.
