Lord Thurlow's House, Knights Hill (c1878) - A Glimpse into the Grandeur of Georgian England
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the 18th century, offering a rare glimpse into the architectural splendor of Lord Thurlow's House in Knights Hill. Built by renowned architect Henry Holland for Edward Thurlow, this magnificent country house stood as a symbol of opulence and prestige. The image captures the grandeur of the large estate with its imposing facade and elegant design. Set against a backdrop of lush countryside, it exudes an air of tranquility and sophistication that was characteristic of Georgian-era Britain. Sadly, this majestic residence met a tragic fate when it was engulfed in flames in 1809. However, through this photograph, we are able to appreciate its former glory and understand why it held such significance during its time. Today, Knights Hill is an area within West Norwood in Greater London. The remnants of Lord Thurlow's House may have vanished over time but its legacy lives on through images like these that offer us a window into our rich architectural heritage. This remarkable piece comes from "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People And Its Places" authored by Edward Walford in 1878. Preserved by The Print Collector publication company, this historical snapshot transports us back to an era where stately homes dotted the landscape and exemplifies how photography can preserve our past for future generations to admire.
