What people say...

Why Beechcroft? 

The history of Caversham Park

In the Middle Ages, Caversham Park was known as Caversham Manor and was owned by William Marshal (1146-1219), Earl of Pembroke and Protector and Regent for the 9-year-old King Henry III.  Marshal died at Caversham but is buried in Temple Church, London.

In the 16th century, the manor house was bought by Sir Francis Knollys, Queen Elizabeth I’s treasurer. He demolished the existing manor and built a great mansion in its place. During the Civil War, King Charles I was held captive here. After the Civil war the mansion fell into disrepair and was eventually demolished. Several houses have stood on the site, including the home of William Cadogan, 1st Earl of Cadogan. The present Caversham Park house was built in 1850 for the Crawshay family. 

During the First World War, the house was used as a convalescent home for wounded soldiers and afterward was occupied by the BBC Monitoring Service until Beechcroft’s acquisition of the estate.
