Turville Grange is a large detached house in the village of Turville Heath in the English county of Buckinghamshire. It was built in the late 18th century and expanded and altered c.1890 for a Stephen Smith. It has been listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England since June 1955. A wing to the rear of the house was added by Walter Tapper in the 1900s.




History


In 1904 the estate was bought by Julia Caroline Stonor, the Marquise d'Hautpoul de Seyre.
The wrought iron gates at the Grange were given to the d'Hautpoul's by Queen Alexandra between 1906 and 1908, who was a frequent visitor. In the 1950s Lionel Brett added dormers and a pedimented door surround to accentuate the Grange's Georgian style at the behest of his father, Oliver Sylvain Baliol Brett, 3rd Viscount Esher.
