Ghosts, Royals & Traitors - The remarkable history of West Horsley Place

Speaker: Ed Criswick - volunteer guide and member of the West Horsley Place Trust.

West Horsley Place in Surrey is an unknown royal palace, with many royal connections as well as links to politicians, high society - and traitors! This informative talk will explore the remarkable history of this venerable Grade I listed manor house as well as its architectural gems, its links to the film and TV world, and its new life and ambitions under the West Horsley Place Trust which now owns the House.
