English Mansion: brampton de Eversey-An amazing and solemn house in Somerset.

Brympon d 'Evercy is one of the most historic houses in Somerset, and was once called "the most beautiful house in England". After hundreds of years of slow construction and renovation and transformation in each century, brampton Eversey has developed slowly and continuously, forming a huge first-class listed mansion and manor with many architectural styles.

The key facts about the original housing project in Eversey, brampton began at 1220, although there were few original houses left. Brampton Eversey is located in the suburb of yeovil town, Somerset, England. In its 800-year history, Brighton de Eversey has only five families. The history of the house entrance, about 1868. "In A.D. 1220, the de Eversey family purchased the property recorded as Bruneone in the Doomsday Book, which means" brown enclosure ". At that time, it was just some buildings and farms. The de Eversey family added a church, but by 1430, when Brighton de Eversey handed it over to the Siddenham family, the church consisted of a manor, a garden, two acres of land and 40 homeowners. For the next 300 years, the Siddenham family owned brampton de Eversey. There was a time when the wealth of the Siddenham family, Britain's largest landlord, fluctuated greatly. It seems that every generation will prosper or go bankrupt. Although Siddenham's descendants suffered from economic difficulties, they made many changes to brampton de Eversey in the 15, 16 and 18 centuries. As an important family, the Saidenham family cannot be regarded as behind the times. Their joining the brampton de Eversey family was greatly influenced by the construction of Somerset neighbors and the new concept of family comfort and privacy.

The first John Sydenham reinforced the house now called the Pastor's House, a small monster in the Middle Ages, which was built near the mansion. Maybe this is a guest room, or, more likely, this is the dowry of the first Mrs. Siddenham. She doesn't know that her son will die before her, so she can stay in the main building as long as she wants.

Next is a tower, luxuriantly decorated, which is a typical Tudor building with large bay windows and a honeycomb roof. The north wing is almost a house in a house. It has its own external entrance, which has hardly changed since it was built around 1520. Sometimes called the wing of Henry VIII, the upper window of the north wing is decorated with the beautifully carved arm of King Henry VIII. The Siddenham family was awarded this high honor because of its subtle connection with royal blood. John Siddenham IV built brampton de Eversey Square around the original Great Hall, and his son John Siddenham V built a huge bucket-shaped arched kitchen wing.

The last John Sydenham built the entire Palladian South Wing. Although the architect in charge of the South Wing is still a mystery, it is this building in brampton de Eversey that transformed it from a country manor into an English mansion. The national apartment on the first floor is the most elaborate and luxurious decoration in the whole house. It consists of the usual salon layout and leads to the national bedroom through gradually smaller and more private rooms. No members of the royal family have been to the Eversey Palace, and these rooms were soon redecorated into more useful spaces.

At 1860 in front of the garden, when Philip Siddenham, the last son of John Siddenham, got the key to the castle, almost all the funds were used up. 1697, Philip tried to sell Bram Pud Eversey Manor at the price of16-20,000, but as no buyer was interested, he mortgaged Bram Pud Eversey to Thomas Penny, the tax collector in Somerset. After the mansion was overhauled, Penny fell into the predicament of self-reliance, and lost her job at 173 1 because of misappropriation of funds, and she was down and out.

Thanks to Penny, the south side of brampton Mansion now has a grooved glass porch, its own bell tower and a new entrance to the beautiful priest tower. 173 1 year, brampton de eversey was sold to finney at an auction and later sold by finney. The Finney family had little influence on the manor, but its influence on Victorian society was obvious. The house was basically empty until Count John westmorland's wife Jane Sanders and her daughter Georgina Fan En moved in. It's annoying enough that these ladies live independently of the count, but what really makes people talk about it is the affair between Lady Georgiana and Arthur Wellesley Duke of Wellington. The relationship never became a marriage, and Mrs. georgiana lived alone in Eversey, Brighton, after her mother died.

When the inheritance passed to George Anna's nephew Spencer Ponsonby, he was heavily in debt, and the young man didn't want to come back from Ireland. It is believed that he has been evading court summons and claiming inheritance. At the sight of brampton de Eversey, the profligate nephew was considered to have changed his life. Peng Senbi vowed to hold the land no matter what. He became an excellent civil servant with 65,438+065,438+0 children, and turned this quiet house into a paradise for crickets. Every year, he holds a family gathering specially for English crickets.

The two world wars brought losses to the death of brampton de Eversey and her sister violette Clive. 1955, the shopkeeper Richard Ponsonby Finn sold all the collections of Bripon Devsey, including a large number of artworks and antiques collected by Lady Georgiana and her mother, Countess westmorland. The empty house was used as a public school for the next 20 years. 1974, Charles Clive Ponsonby Finn made Brimpen Devsey his home and began to restore it as a tourist attraction. Unfortunately, it can't replace what has been sold, and the enterprise has failed. Now Brighton de Eversey belongs to the Glossop family, and they use it as the wedding venue and shooting location.

Why Brighton de Eversey is famous In the past 800 years, the architectural style of Brighton de Eversey Villa is as eclectic as the personality of many families. Writer Chrisopher Hussey called Brympon d 'Evercy "the most beautiful house in Britain". It was slowly built for hundreds of years, but after two world wars and a huge auction in the 20th century, it performed poorly and almost became an empty shell. Despite these difficulties, Brighton de Eversey is still the home of a family and one of the big families in England. Brighton de Eversey starred in TV series and movies.
