Latest news – EVENT CANCELLED because of Covid restrictions
Ugbrooke House has been the family seat of the Clifford family for over 400 years. In the mid-18th century the house was remodelled by Robert Adam, and the gardens by Capability Brown. Both are well worth exploring. There is also a very impressive chapel that is still in use.

2 pm Conducted tour of the house. Cost for house and gardens £9. If we have 15 or more members visiting the house, we shall get a private tour to ourselves – otherwise we shall have to be part of a public tour.
