Heatherton Park

Heatherton Park Estate, Somerset.

The estate was formed by Sir Thomas Gunston in 1765, and he built a modest five by four bay Palladian house c.1770 to the designs of an unknown architect, which was altered in the 1790s. A design by William Blogg for improving the front of 'Heatherton House' was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1797, but it is not clear whether it was for this house or for Heatherton in Sussex. The porch was added in the 1840s and the single-storey flat-roofed conservatory either side of it at some later point. The house became a school in the 1920s, and in 1928 a fine Baroque-style chapel was built adjacent to the south-west corner of the house disguised as a detached five bay single-storey classical pavilion, to the designs of Mr Stone of Taunton. The conservatory was then extended to provide covered access to it. The school closed in 1953 and the estate was sold to a property speculator who divided the house and outbuildings into flats.
