The Bulletin  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 75—No. 3875  

THE FEDERAL ELECTIONS  

Wednesday, May 19, 1954  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

Seppelts  

IMMENSE AND STATELY.  

AUDLEY END IS NOW  

AN ANCIENT MONUMENT  

THE largest and finest of the stately homes  

in the County of Essex is Audley End,  

which James described as too large for  

king, “but it might do very well fox Lord  

Treasurer,” the office then held by the owner.  

Audley End, near Saffron Walden, stands  

upon the site of Benedictine Abbey which  

was given by Henry VIII in 1538 to Sir Thomas  

Audley, from whom the house takes its name.  

The estate passed to his descendant, Thomas  

Howard, who enjoyed the favor of James I,  

became the first Earl of Suffolk and amassed  

fortune. He commissioned the architect John  

Thorpe to design the great mansion and spent  

£200,000 on its erection—the equivalent to-day  

of several million pounds. At that time it was  

regarded as the largest house which had then  

been built in England.  

Although Audley End has been greatly  

reducfed in size since those early days it is  

still an immense building and it has retained  

its Jacobean style in spite of alterations made  

by later owners. This unity of style is one  

of the remarkable features of Audley End.  

In 1668 Charles II visited Audley End and  

year later bought the estate for £50,000,  

although there is some doubt as to whether the  

money was actually paid. In 1701 the fifth  

Earl of Suffolk was allowed to re-establish  

himself in the seat of hjs ancestors but the  

great palace was now too big for less flam-  

boyant generation. The outer courtyard was  

demolished and later this was followed by the  

eastern side of the inner court. The great  

architect Sir John Vanbrugh was engaged to  

remodel the Great Hall and fortune was  

spent in successive restorations.  

Audley End, by sale and inheritance, passed  

in 1762 to Lord Howard de Walden, and later  

Lord Braybrooke, who spent £lOO,OOO on further  

restoration work, much of which was done  

by Robert Adam, The suite of rooms he  

decorated remains as splendid example of  

this great artist’s work.  

In 1950, this great mansion was bought by  

the Ministry of Works and is now preserved for  

future generations as an ancient monument.  

It is open to the public on certain days of the  

week and here can be seen fine library, the  

original furniture and valuable collection  

of pictures.
