Eastbury Park was a country estate near Tarrant Gunville in Dorset, England. It contained a large mansion designed by Sir John Vanbrugh. The mansion has not survived, but its former service wing has become a country house known as Eastbury House, a Grade I listed building. HistoryThe house was designed by Vanbrugh for George Dodington, who was Secretary to the Treasurer of the Navy.[1] Construction started in 1718 and was completed under the stewardship of Dodington's nephew, George Dodington, 1st Baron Melcombe, in 1738 at a final cost £140,000:[2] it had a large garden which was designed by Charles Bridgeman.[1] The house was inherited by Richard Grenville-Temple, 2nd Earl Temple in 1762, who had no use for it, and he had it demolished in 1782.[1] The service wing, designed by Vanbrugh and built at the same time as the rest of the mansion, survived the demolition and became known as Eastbury House. It became a Grade I listed building in 1955.[3] The parklands are Grade II* listed in the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.[4] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.dorsetlife.co.uk/2007/10/a-lost-mansion-of-dorset/|title=A lost mansion of Dorset|publisher=Dorset Life|accessdate=27 December 2013}} {{coord|50.9137|-2.0979|format=dms|type:landmark|display=title}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.mysteriousbritain.co.uk/england/dorset/hauntings/eastbury-house.html|title=Eastbury House|publisher=Mysterious Britain|accessdate=27 December 2013}} 3. ^{{NHLE |num=1324303 |desc=Eastbury House including attached west courtyard and gateway |accessdate=15 July 2015 }} 4. ^{{NHLE |num=1000549 |desc=Eastbury |accessdate=11 February 2016 |fewer-links=x}} 5 : Country houses in Dorset|Grade I listed buildings in Dorset|Houses completed in 1738|John Vanbrugh buildings|Grade II* listed parks and gardens in Dorset |
