An 18
th
century English country house in Hertfordshire,
Gaddesden Place is used as a private house and offices.
The house has been used as a location for many TV dramas,
commercials and films. Located near the M1 and M25 it is
close to the north London film studios of Leavesden,
Pinewood and Elstree.
Set on a hill overlooking parkland and the Gade valley, it is
said to have one of the finest views in Hertfordshire.
Gaddesden Place, built in 1768, was the first work of the
pre-eminent architect of his day, James Wyatt, later
responsible for the famous Pantheon in London (since
destroyed by fire) and the infamous, truly huge, Gothic pile
that was Fonthill Abbey. Architect to King George III, Wyatt
was killed in an early ‘traffic accident’ when his carriage was
toppled. He is buried in Westminster Abbey.
