Historical Significance

Thorndon Hall’s rich history dates back to the 1086 Domesday Survey. The current Georgian structure, designed by James Paine, began construction in 1764, incorporating elements from earlier Palladian designs. After surviving a fire in 1878 and various ownership changes, the building was sympathetically converted into luxury apartments in 1976, preserving its historical grandeur.
