Marden Park, the home of Woldingham School, has a very long and turbulent history. The estate dates back to the year 950, when it was established by a Saxon nobleman, Byrhtic. Through the ages, the estate changed hands frequently, at some point it was even owned by the Tudor family!!! The old house was destroyed completely in a fire in 1879 and the present house was built on exactly the same site. Finally, after WWII, the Marden Park was sold to the Society of the Sacred Heart, which eventually established here the present Woldingham School. The school grounds are spacious and beautifully located among the hills of Surrey, with amazing gardens and many lovely spots. Have a look!
