Situated on the right bank of the river Thames in close proximity to Richmond and Central London, Ham House is unique as the most complete survival of 17th century fashion. Built in 1610, it was enlarged in the 1670’s when it was at the heart of Restoration court life. It was then occupied by the same family until 1948 when it was bequeathed to the National Trust.
The formal garden is significant for its survival within the area known as the cradle of the English Landscape Movement.
