The King's Observatory
The walk around the house will take approximately 1 hour.
The house itself is packed with history and is a fine example of 18th Century Palladian architecture – the architect being Sir William Chambers who also designed Somerset House and Kew Garden’s famous Pagoda. The astronomical telescope cupola is believed to be the oldest of its type in the World.
The ticket charge is £20 per person and £15 per concession (60yrs and over/ Under 16yrs ). No children under 10 years old will be admitted.
We hope you enjoy your visit.
