Queen Elizabeth's Hunting Lodge |
||||||||||
|
Queen Elizabeth's Hunting Lodge is situated at the heart of glorious Epping Forest.
The timber- framed grade 2* listed building was commissioned by King Henry VIII as a grandstand for shooting deer from. Dating from 1543, it would have been the centre of a lavish day out for Tudor courtiers.
Today, the Lodge is quiet and visitors can explore the kitchen and the King's shooting gallery, admire a ceiling which inspired a young William Morris or admire the fantastic view. Brass rubbings and dressing up clothes are available for children.
Special events are organised and private tours for groups are available.
