Dogmersfield House and Park, Hampshire - engraving after J. Landseer, early 19th
Dogmersfield House and Park, Hampshire - engraving after J. Landseer, early 19th century -
Mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086, Doccemere feld (Water lilies-in-the-lake) was the site of the original building, a medieval palace for the Bishops of Bath and Wells. It remained an ecclesiastical residence for 400 years until becoming a Crown property in the reign of Henry VIII. Henrys son Edward VI gave it to Lord Wriothsley, the first Earl of Southampton in the 16th century. The house was sold by the third Earl and passed through a number of different yeoman families. In 1728, some 50 years before the canal was envisaged, the first Baronet St John built a new manor house. It was enlarged by his son, Sir Henry Mildmay, and remained in the family until 1933. During the second World War the house accommodated Dutch and Polish airmen. It became Reeds School for girls; a seminary for Spanish priests and finally Daneshill Preparatory School. In 1981 Dogmersfield House was destroyed by fire. Appropriately for the 20th century, an international computer company, Amdahl, rebuilt it. The restored and extended house was re-opened by the Princess Royal in 1986.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Dogmersfield House and Park in Hampshire, captured through an engraving after J. Landseer from the early 19th century. The history of this remarkable estate dates back to its mention in the Domesday Book of 1086 as "Doccemere feld" or Water lilies-in-the-lake. Originally serving as a medieval palace for the Bishops of Bath and Wells, it remained an ecclesiastical residence for four centuries before becoming a Crown property during Henry VIII's reign. Over time, Dogmersfield House changed hands multiple times, passing through various yeoman families until it was rebuilt by Sir Henry Mildmay in 1728. The house continued to evolve under different ownerships and purposes; during World War II, it provided shelter for Dutch and Polish airmen before transforming into Reeds School for girls, then a seminary for Spanish priests, and finally Daneshill Preparatory School. However, tragedy struck in 1981 when fire ravaged Dogmersfield House. In true testament to modernity's resilience, international computer company Amdahl undertook its reconstruction. After extensive restoration and expansion efforts were completed, the house was reopened by none other than Princess Royal herself in 1986. This image not only captures the grandeur of Dogmersfield House but also serves as a reminder of its enduring legacy throughout centuries of change and transformation.
