Biddlesden Park is a country house at Biddlesden in north-west Buckinghamshire. It is a Grade II* listed building. HistoryThe house, which lies on the site of an old Cistercian abbey, was built by John Sayer, in the Georgian style in 1727.[1] The staircase dates from the same period.[2] The house then passed to Ralph Verney, 2nd Earl Verney before it was acquired, on Verney's death in 1791, by George Morgan, who was High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire.[3] The house remained in the ownership of the Morgan and then the Morgan-Grenville family for most of the 19th century.[4] It was bought by Lieutenant Colonel Reginald Badger in around 1932 and then remained in the Badger family for many years before passing to Mrs. Elizabeth Maud Gordon.[5] It was then comprehensively renovated in the 1980s.[1] It was acquired by Ronald Randall, a meat supplier, in 2009.[6] The church of St Margaret of Scotland is situated in the grounds of Biddlesden Park.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.countrylife.co.uk/news/property-news/new-sporting-estates-on-the-market-29902#Kx6M4tw5vzt3fwvj.99|title=New sporting estates on the market|publisher=Country Life|date=16 April 2009|accessdate=4 July 2015}} {{coord|52.053904|N|1.079091|W|region:GB-BKM_type:landmark|display=title}}2. ^{{cite web|url=https://ubp.buckscc.gov.uk/SingleResult.aspx?uid=%27MBC1922%27|title=Biddlesden Park|publisher=Buckingham County Council|accessdate=4 July 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://met.open.ac.uk/genuki/big/eng/BKM/Biddlesden/|title=Biddlesden|publisher=Open University|accessdate=4 July 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk/online/content/kinloss1601.htm|title=Lady Mary Temple-Nugent-Brydges-Chandos-Grenville later Morgan later Morgan-Grenville|publisher=Cracrofts Peerage|accessdate=4 July 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://archive.churchsociety.org/cstrust/CSTschemes/CST070-SCH-1977beneficecreationreduced.pdf|title=At the Court at Buckingham Palace|publisher=Church Society|date=26 July 1977|accessdate=4 July 2015}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1364408/Natasha-Kaplinsky-Why-Im-bored-motherhood.html|title=Find me a job in TV!
