Swakeleys Park in winter
Swakeleys was built between 1629 and 1638 and has been little changed since the 17th century. It is one of the finest Jacobean houses in London. A full history of the house can be seen at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swakeleys_House
Swakeleys Park is a part of the former Swakeleys Estate which covered 429 acres. This covered a substantial part of Ickenham which until the 20th century was totally rural with just a few hundred residents. Swakeleys House dominated the landscape and is still visible across the lake, which is to the right here. The park itself was privately owned until the 1920s when it was conveyed to the Council to be preserved as public open space.
