Mapledurham Estate

Mapledurham "the maple tree enclosure", the estate and the mill date back over 900 years to Doomsday. It is an oasis of peace, natural beauty and history which can be an ideal setting for fun corporate events, dreamy weddings or just a good day out. The location has also attracted many film and television productions including 'The Eagle has landed' and hit series such as 'Anyone for Dennis'.

Mapledurham has adapted successfully to change over many years. Change at Mapledurham has evolved gradually, often as a result of historical events such as the Civil War and Catholic Emancipation. Unusually, it has been brought about not by demolition but by alteration. Thus the original half timbering in the Old Manor House still exists behind the brick skin built many years later, and in the watermill the old roofing timbers remain in place even after the extensions were built.
