Wakehurst Place
The mansion at Wakehurst Place in Ardingly, West Sussex, England. The house is a late 16th-century gentry house that was the residence of Gerald Loder, 1st Baron Wakehurst, who was largely responsible for the garden. He spent 33 years developing the gardens, which take up about two square kilometres (500 acres). The property belongs to the National Trust and is managed by the Royal Botanic Gardens.Photo: David Iliff

re changes[edit]

The importance of the house shouldn't be played down. Wakehurst Place is, first and foremost, a house, or country estate. There was a statement that the "Hall" rated an illustration in Nash's book. What does this means exactly? The fact that this is written with a Capital H for "Hall" indicates that it was the house itself that was illustrated, as many such houses are called "the Hall". If it was indeed the "hall" (the largest room) that was illustrated, then it needs a l.c. "h". Amandajm (talk) 11:54, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
