History happened here. I mean, history happens everywhere. But serious, important, world-shaping history happened at Trent Park.
Built in Enfield Chase, an expanse of Hertfordshire countryside used as hunting grounds by royalty, this country house has lived many lives. It was a Georgian retreat, a Victorian mansion, a post-Edwardian sanctuary, and then, during the second world war, it became a place of secrets. Afterwards, it became a university campus, before falling into dereliction. Now, it has been revived, and its hidden stories brought into the light.
