Parham House, West Sussex, c1900s-c1920s. Parham is an Elizabethan house set in an ancient deer park close to the South Downs. During the Middle Ages the manor of Parham was owned by Westminster Abbey. In 1540 Parham was given to Robert Palmer, a London mercer, by Henry VIII. In 1577 his son, Sir Thomas Palmer, began to build a new house at Parham, incorporating parts of the old manor house. The present house remains essentially as it was built then

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Parham House in West Sussex, dating back to the early 20th century. Nestled within a picturesque ancient deer park near the South Downs, this Elizabethan stately home exudes timeless grandeur. With its origins tracing back to Westminster Abbey during the Middle Ages, Parham House was bestowed upon Robert Palmer by King Henry VIII in 1540. It was Sir Thomas Palmer, his son, who embarked on constructing a new residence at Parham in 1577 while incorporating elements of the original manor house. Remarkably, the present-day structure remains true to its original design. The photograph captures not only the architectural splendor of Parham House but also highlights an era long gone by. The monochrome image adds an air of nostalgia as it portrays a flag fluttering proudly against the backdrop of this magnificent country house. Preserved through time and expertly captured by an unknown creator, this postcard-like print invites viewers to immerse themselves in history and appreciate both the craftsmanship and beauty that define Parham House. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, we are reminded of its rich heritage tied closely with notable figures such as Robert Palmer and King Henry VIII himself – individuals whose influence shaped not only this extraordinary estate but also England's past.
