EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Hackwood Park House: A Regency-era Stately Home and the Seat of the Baron Bolton Hackwood Park House, situated in the heart of the English countryside in Basingstoke, Hampshire, has been the esteemed seat of the Bolton family since the late 18th century. This magnificent Regency-era mansion, as depicted in this handcoloured copperplate engraving from Rudolph Ackermann's Repository of Arts, London, 1825, has been the residence of Thomas Orde Powlett, 1st Baron Bolton. The grandeur of Hackwood Park House is evident in its impressive Ionic portico, designed by the renowned architect Lewis Wyatt. The stately home is flanked by the imposing figure of King George I, paying homage to the monarch who reigned during the early years of the 18th century. The intricately designed portico, with its tall columns and ornate detailing, is a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the period. The gardens of Hackwood Park House are equally as impressive, having been landscaped by the famous gardener Charles Bridgeman in the early 18th century. Later, Lady Bolton added her own touches to the gardens, creating a picturesque and serene setting that complements the grandeur of the house. The history of Hackwood Park House is intertwined with that of the surrounding area, including Broadlands, the seat of the Palmerston family, and Romsey Abbey. The estate has been in the hands of the Bolton family for over two centuries, with the title of Baron Bolton being created for Thomas Orde Powlett in 1802. The house has also been associated with notable figures such as Henry Temple, 2nd Viscount Palmerston, who was a prominent politician during the Regency era. This beautiful handcoloured copperplate engraving offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of grandeur, opulence, and aristocratic living. The intricately detailed image showcases the beauty and elegance of Hackwood Park House, a true testament to the rich history and heritage of the English countryside.
