HistoryThe house on the Wilton Park Estate, which was known as the "White House", was designed by Richard Jupp for Josias Du Pre, Governor of Madras, and completed in 1779.[1] In 1939 the house was taken over by the War Office and used as an interrogation centre for Nazi prisoners of war: German refugees working for the allies would listen into prisoners' conversations.[2] After the War the house was used by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to re-educate prisoners of war into the British way of life: between January 1946 and June 1948 approx 4,500 Germans were made to attend re-education classes there.[3] The house went on to become the home of the Army School of Administration from 1949 and also the home of the Army School of Education from 1950.[1] The Foreign Office "re-education" facility, still known as Wilton Park and still organising conferences, moved out in 1951 and is now based at Wiston House in West Sussex.[1] Wilton Park served as Headquarters Eastern Command from 1954 until it was amalgamated into Army Strategic Command in 1972.[4] In the 1960s a School of Languages was established on the site (Colonel Gaddafi of Libya studied there at that time).[4] Although the house was demolished in 1968, the school remained on the site until April 2014.[5] Standing sets for filming the ITV TV series Endeavour have been built at Wilton Park since 2016.[6] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.southbucks.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=4886&p=0|title=Wilton Park Development Brief|publisher=South Buckinghamshire Council|date=January 2014|page=7|accessdate=9 July 2014}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-20698098|title=The Nazi prisoners bugged by Germans|publisher=BBC|date=18 January 2013|accessdate=9 July 2014}} 3. ^{{cite book|author=Arthur Lee Smith|title=The war for the German mind: re-educating Hitler's soldiers|page=50}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.subbrit.org.uk/rsg/sites/w/wilton_park/ |title=Wilton Park|publisher=Subterranea Britannica|accessdate=28 November 2014}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=The Defence Centre for Languages and Culture (DCLC)|url=http://www.da.mod.uk/da-news/the-defence-centre-for-languages-and-culture-dclc|website=Defence Academy of the United Kingdom|publisher=British Ministry of Defence|accessdate=17 November 2014}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://dmbarcroft.com/exclusive-endeavour-series-5-set-report/ |title=Exclusive Endeavour Series 5 Set Report|publisher=Damian Michael Barcroft|accessdate=5 March 2018}} 4 : Country houses in Buckinghamshire|British country houses destroyed in the 20th century|World War II prisoner of war camps in England|Houses completed in 1779 |
